Hey I found you… just sending another big THANK YOU for the BB. It will always be my favorite. It has a new resting place on a wall in our new home in Tucson. Such a masterpiece that amazes all who see it. Glad to see your work is still thriving. Wishing you the best. C

Comment on For the Holidays…Why not a Mammoth? by P. Donoghue

This is a timeless piece of art with an exquisite detail to the Mammoth. You made it seem as if it were right in front of you, emerging from the snow. The picture is painted beautifully with so much detail given to the snowy fur.

Your life limps along just like mine does. Bad marriage-endings, no money, etc. etc. Me too brother. I’m writing to tell you not to worry about it, just take it one thing at a time. Your paintings are splendid, simply wonderful. I’m an artist myself, also a writer, and have always been one misstep from homelessness. But — I have many happy moments. The most recent is discovering your paintings. Keep up the good work, please! How come no one ever points out that primitive whales resemble crocodiles? How come no one ever wonders how they competed in the tropics with all those big, bad crocodiles? I live on top of the Chuckanut Formation, a big Eocene exposure. But do we ever get any big fossils besides palm fronds? No! Good luck to you.

i can understand falling out of love with your images after you’ve labored over them for a long time, but every time someone encounters your painting for the first time they will fall in love with it for you.
