I Don't understand why folks are apprehensive to post comments in blogs...wish they weren't!
I love the transition of cool to warm in your painting - incorporating it into your exquisite detail surely wasn't an easy task.
It (your painting) holds that same sort of visual "celebration - or perhaps simply a dance" i get when staring at the objects in my kitchen window sill. Cool day-light bouncing off one side of things and warm incandescent bouncing off the other side.
This is a painting I have seen that holds a less subtle example of warm/cold windowsill visual... the color in this painting really gets me, perhaps I am a sucker for the complimentary thing... i really don't understand the technical aspects of painting/color enough to specify.

I actually have one of his lilly paintings. I like his work, despite the fact that it gives me a "paint-by-numbers" feeling (unlike your own work, which sings mastery)
okay, that is all i have to rattle on about tonight... hope all is well with you and yours!
