I see a bit of impressionism is some of your work.

Thank you. I hope to one day be able to create realistic art, maybe even surrealism. I'd love to meet local artists who are trans so that I would be able to grow in my art, and as a TG.

The two I liked the best were the cherries and the barn.
I think my favorite genre is French Impressionism.

Which barn scene did you like best? The one with the tree beside the barn (acrylic) or the one with the fruit in the window (oil pastel)? The one with the cherries (oil pastel) was an answer to a photo challenge over on wetcanvas.com a couple of years ago.

I liked the barn scene with the body of water in the foreground. The other one was good too.
The one with the cherries just shouted impressionist at me. It was well-executed.

I like the idea of painting impressionistically, though that wasn't my intention with those pieces. The water you see in front of the barn was supposed to be pavement with shadows. Interpretations :)

I like the cherries painting. A good mix of realism and impressionism.
