    Feels like very energetic person, the background underlines his fire-like temper...true?

      He hasn’t shown a temper in the years I have known him. Of course he is an older man. he has probably mellowed over the years.

    For me, he is shoveling fallen leaves onto a bonfire here...I see the reflections of the flames in the background behind him...reminds me so much of my late father!
    Just gazing at this highly evocative masterpiece fills me with much-needed warmth on this cold and dreary day...:)

      In this I sort of moved him into a burning forest. Shoveling leaves makes more sense. Good memories, I hope.
      Thank you

    now that my son's trick work and I see him , he's a twin to a man I know who looks exactly like him wearing jeans and always walking he has no car, but gosh your imagination painted him, I wish I still lived where \i did, 'cause I'd bring the computer and showed him his twin i didn't see that in the small format, if ever my reducing your blog affects it and leaves it that way let me know and I will immediately get it to its large size...it shouldn't affect your blog but who knows, one way or the other i'll never stop visiting you

      We all have a twin, I am told. “R” must have many. Others have noted similar recognitions from my many drawing and paintings of him.
