I am giddy with your praise - high, ...Dear Melinda! I am giddy with your praise - high, high praise indeed, being compared to the likes of Krasner and Frankenthaler - even if it is a stretch of course. <br />There are three Krasners at the AGO this summer, on loan from MOMA - one Frankenthaler, one Joan Mitchell, a fantastic large totem piece by Bourgeois - I also love the two Noguchi sculptures and the one by David Smith! (Noguchi, btw, was interred in Arizona during the second world war, voluntarily at his own request - although being half American would have exempted him - but he wanted to show solidarity with less fortunate Japanese Americans.)<br />There are many, many heroes are there not, almost too numerous to keep track of. <br />Also, I must say I'm pretty excited by your recent work!!!<br />xo Marciacohen labellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00713812144707226168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5517953110445932114.post-92130975580393071382011-07-05T17:03:31.209-04:002011-07-05T17:03:31.209-04:00Nicki, I love the expression you used- 'knocke...Nicki, I love the expression you used- 'knocked my socks off' - it elicited instant delight!!! <br />As you know, I love your work - you are a major source of inspiration to me - dear fellow Saskatchewanian!!!cohen labellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00713812144707226168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5517953110445932114.post-25375102805097837092011-07-05T16:55:01.103-04:002011-07-05T16:55:01.103-04:00Barbara, Thank you!

It is a style I appreciate - and my other friend is a Brit and you are American, so this must be a universal trait. <br />Thank you so much for your lavishly, kind thoughts as well and I hope you are enjoying yourself this summer with brush in hand.
