I know Diane’s work through blogging and totally agree that her work in general and brushwork specifically deserves praise!!

Google brought up your blog… very interesting.

I know Diane through Facebook where all artists are so very supportive of each other. The charm of this painting lies in the economy of her brush-strokes and also the lightnessof the technique! It is as if the brush danced lightly over the canvas.

I’m a fan of Diane’s work. Your description of “casual but luxuriant brushstrokes” is perfect.

I coulcn’t agree more. I have one of her paintings and just love it–irises in a pottery-type vase. Gorgeous.

I completely agree with you, Charley. I really like the way she paints the vases and/or bottles filled with water. In fact, the painting that you chose to display here is one of my favorites, particularly because of the fantistic rendering of the murky water.

wonderful post. I agree, as you so eloquently put it, her relaxed, painterly style is winning.
