    This is such a lovely memory and so beautifully painted. I especially love the leaves - and the litle green boat. Wonderful picture! Have a lovely, creative week!

    What a lovely autumn picture! Brings back some memories for me too, riding a small boat with my grandfather a long time ago. Great work!

    Sweet and tender! What a wonderful father-daughter memory. I love the softness of the water, too. Please promise me you won't go canoeing when Gustav's around, though. Stay safe this week, Eric.

    I click to enlarge the image, I see so many detail, the wood grain on the boat, the wave, the pedal and expression on daughter and father, all so detail and fantastic artwork!

    Man, I really, really like your work. Seriously, no exaggeration. Everything you do is so consistently excellent.

    This is a great piece. I really like the water and the background -- the textures are perfect. Also, the gradients on the leaves and the vests add an extra autumnal punch. Excellent.

    So sweet and tender and love the hint of Autumn on it's way. I can so see this as a children's book, a father/daughter theme. Just love it!
