What truly beautiful paintings - thank you for introducing me to Thornton Walker. I think that I'll have to start saving too - a must have!
Beautiful art - thanks for sharing as I've never seen his work before.
Fabulous post Lee. As much as I love the colour in his work, I find I'm very drawn to his b&w pieces. So it that case I must have both!
