Bill, this is an interesting narrative on the world of art and expressed so well in your image here. Wonderful work. F/L.

OMG!!! This is just spectacular, I love your style to begin with, but this one really tells a story! Love the colors too!
Lynda Lehmann
Love the composition and the sense of antipathy you have created. And your sense of humor. FL!
Debra Lynch
I really like this one Bill, what I like most about your work is it tells a story without words... That is real talent... L/F

This stopped me in my tracks, Bill. IF you keep this up you will be considered to be a master. Heck-- this one proves you can compete with the very best! Well presented and lovely as ever. FAV!

high praise appreciated; thank you Reynold. I just basically paint and hang. Comments such as yours inspire me -- keep me going; thanks again.

Anyone who knows Bill knows this painting IS him! Congratulations on some very special art, Bill. When do we do our combined exhibit? When is your exhibit in Moranton? Katie
Bill OConnor replied:
...thanks Kate. Actualy turned down exhibits lately (Charlotte, Morganton, etc.) I'm hiding and just painting -- looking for a breakthrough on some large pieces.

Bill, I couldn't agree more with many of the below comments on this work ~ magnificent, bold, a tribute to the greats ... and a story . . . ps ... as you use to hang with some of the great writers I will let you know of a magnificent novel which sort of went viral at the London Book Faire by my daughter Affinity Konar ~ so far 18 countries have bought the translation and distribution rights ..."Mischling" will be published October 2016 : )
Bill OConnor replied:
...thanks Matt -- all appreciated -- Happy New Year to you and your wonderful family. Mischling ("half blood") sounds interesting.-- I'll be checking Amazon.
