Carl Larsson
It was Pascaline, owner of a delightfully 'arty' B&B near Chamonix in the French Alps, a now regular port of call of mine on my trips across Europe, who first introduced me to the work of Carl Larsson. He drew and painted in a style to which I would be ver happy to aspire and, by closely studying his drawings I have learned much about his techniques. I now have three of his books; 'A Family', 'A Home' and 'A Farm'; all are a delight to browse.

I'm so glad that Engaging Right gave you a moment's respite John... moderation in all things at your age perhaps... but what would I know...
You are probably right but when you are as engaged as I am . . . !
Please pass on my compliments to ER...
Forgive a spot of self-publicity please John but this cheap and silly e-novella of mine may interest you as I believe you have a Kindle, and if not a free Kindle Reader for PC can be downloaded from Amazon.

Feel free to delete the comment without causing offence if you don't want it contaminating your blog. Hope you are well, and you are busy drawing, I see.
Also, please note I'll be blogging here in future:
http://donquiscottie.blogspot.co.uk/ rather than at my old place, for various reasons.
