Hello Gerard,

First I would like to tell you that I was very pleased to meet you at the 1st (is it 1st) 1X London meeting (which was, as you already mentioned, great)!

I faved this photo of yours before I met you in person (so there could be no bias which may have been caused by a sympathy of meeting you in person).

I would describe this photo a pure perfection of abstract aesthetical beauty (whatever that may mean), in a sense it reminds me of parts of a Modigliani's painting, why I like it so much can't explain, I simply love it. Also, technically looks superbly done.

Kind regards,

Robert

gerard sexton Indeed Robert it was great to meet you & so many other stars from 1x! Thanks for the excellent feedback it is so much appreciated. I look forward to meet you again & since you are a resident of London this should be very soon!

Breathtaking! I love orange and blue together. Thank You!

gerard sexton Thanks once again this time for your comments. So who is superbalanced?

superbalanced superbalanced is kind of my online identity. I use it for twitter, blogspot, wordpress, gmail, Flickr, Picassa etc. My real name is Charles Owens. It comes from the name of my saxophone. I've been playing for 30 years. The saxophone is a Selmer Superbalanced Action Tenor. It's fantastic horn and I've always loved the way that word sounded and the connotations it brought with it. In life we all need balance right? So that's my mantra in a way. Check out my blog if you want http://superbalanced.blogspot.com

Thanks for all the great work you do.

-Charles

gerard sexton Well thats a really good story Charles thanks interesting piece of knowledge. I love the sax tenor alto or soprano cool Jazz...on any afternoon! Keep shaking your tail feather! and watch this space! Oh yeah & you are right about balance the power of balance is often underestimated! Gerard.

I have seen many bad works in this category, abstract. This is not one of them. Verry good work ! The only thing is the botom, a lite crop? A lite bit to dark there i think

gerard sexton Thank you Bon. I thank you for your observation. Really appreciate you stopping by.

I grok the title, man. Is this hanging on your wall? It should be.

gerard sexton Grok hey thats a new word for me King! at first I checked the keyboard for obvious fat finger errors! Apologies for being so presumptuous. Its not yet but soon will be once I can get my 2400 Epson to print to my screen. I will paint this too. Really appreciate that you stopped by! Thanks King

Go lay down in a darkened room Gerard, there must be something wrong with you posting all the wonderful colours. hehe. love the shot. mal

gerard sexton He he ;) I wish I had one! seriously I never got to use one & was never in a position to try. Thanks though yes this is bold but I am an abstract artist so much of my stuff reflects this leaning though up till now I have not really tested the 1x water with this stuff. It is though an honour to get this published & to see you appreciate it amongst so many. Thanks & looking forward to Oct to meet you. Gerard.

Wild, wild and fancy free..print it very large on canvas.:) Congrats to you on this piece. Gotta love those colors and so good to see them here! :) Regards, Phyllis

gerard sexton Hey Phyllis got you on this my sentiments entirely! My intention is that & more get the oils out & reproduce as a painting in time...Its a crop of a full frame the other side is just as remarkable. Thank you so much for your comments.

I love it, and the title. Beautiful.

gerard sexton Thank you Ursula this is so nice to wake too. My 20th publication & an abstract (secretly I take these all the time) I am so proud to have this here! Thank you for stopping by it means so much to me. The title is taken from the supposed dying words of Flauberts' friend! Gerard.
