Lovely gallery <3 I've never been interested in abstract (because it seems pointless and random) but your paints seem to be more than the typical random shapes on paper yours have emotions and a absolutely adore that <3 the colors and the feeling its a lovely combination.

Thank you for favourng Mr Blank. I must say it is a privilege to have any of my work included in the favourites gallery of such a thorough going expressionist as yourself. I don't suppose any stronger work has been produced since Kline and Aurbach. Some of the work did put me in mind of Martin Wolk whose status as an artist on the world stage is still somewhat obscure [link] , but please don't let that doubt my genuine admiration for your work. I shall be watching.
