  2. I'm a great admirer of Linnyland and Linnyism. This painting is so wonderfully inviting. It takes the chill off of winter and reminds us that spring and happy days outside are soon to come again.

    There's a very interesting quality in this painting. It's as though the viewer is able to look through a glass door, easily opened, to arrive in that place, like a pleasant dream come true.

  5. Hi to Linnyland!... better than Disneyland... and every bit as grand as Fantasyland...but on the otherhand... all share a common ingredient... a highly creative mind... and hand! Just... grand Linny! Excuse the silliness... couldn't resist!

    Always enjoy my visits to Linnyland!

    Good Painting!

  6. Linny, this is a joy. I love the way you lay the paint on in strips of colour in the water and other places, it's so unique and luscious. The warm palette is very inviting. I'd love to know what's on your palette in the way of pigments for this painting. They work so well together.

  7. Can I come stay in Linnyland, just for a few minutes to get out of the cold...
    I love the greenish-blue of the water, and how it is repeated in a less intense way in the hills, and how it contrasts with the orangey-ness of the rest.

  9. Really like this, reminds me of the Truman show, without the sinister undercurrent.

  18. Hi Linny,

    I would really like to live in Linnyland, and can by coming here. I think of you all the time when I paint now.

    This is wonderful.

  20. The Truman show is a film about Truman Burbanks life, what he doesn't know is that his whole wonderful world is a TV set, his friends are actors, and he is the most famous person in the world, See video clip at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0rHH6LQdpI
