Absolutely perfect ... love the simplicity! Sure wish I could paint half as good as you! I'd be a lucky woman!

Members of my family just landed in Italy yesterday for a two-week holiday. Very hot in southern Ontario (Canada) today - we're enjoying what is called "Indian Summer".

Julian, this painting is so elegant. It has to do with the position of the rose, I think.

Welcome back. Barbara

Dear Julian, I totally agree with the above comment from Edie Dean. I had been about to say that your marvellous rose painting had echoes of Manet in his later years.
Your talent, and enthusiasm are really inspiring.
Bravo!

I am a retired doctor livinhg in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, USA and now taking weekly oil painting classes. I truly admire your work and your small paintings are precious gems. Above all I admire the simplicity of your compositions and the color harmony that preveils in all of them. How do you get those earthy color tones???? Simply genius!!!

Elegant !!

Do you have a studio in France that is open to the public ? I have been following your paintings and LOVE ALL. I'll be in France next week and would so love to meet you. Thank you.

Painter’s notes

Back again from Italy, feels like I've spent most of the year there! We had a wonderful workshop in Tuscany, a great bunch of students but pleased to finally be home.
