Lovely subtle palette Celeste. Oils are so much softer than acrylics; your work might push me back into them--as soon as I get over my watercolor obsession. As for looking deep--when I look at nature, I'm really feeling it. Food for thought that quote.
Beautiful colors, warm against cool. Einstein is so quotable - my days outside in nature have enhanced my life (though my understanding? don't know about that.)
Do you think it's fair that not only does Einstein come up with the overriding theory of a century, that he has so many quotable quotes too?

Muy bello! melancólico en su colorido, pero también fresco y renovador, lo que suele darnos la naturaleza...
Abrazos y felicitaciones!
Very interesting chromaticisms. Beautiful colours!
So rich and warm!! The colors themselves transport me back to the old masters' works. Wonderful job, Celeste!
I love the tonal quality of this! Beautiful.
Celeste your works are always a great inspiration for me, always good works, I loved the flower too...
Love this painting, but the quote...Not sure I understand anything.. no matter how deep I keep looking, *giggle.
