Max did an amazing job I'm extremely pleased with the painting I think he undervalues his skills and I think it would be good if you could send an additional tip that art finder didn't take a cut of

Hi Steve, Many thanks for the great review, and of course I am so glad that you like it. Hope that the wife is pleased with it as well. It took me a bit longer than I wanted but it was worth the effort to see your comments. Please let me know what she thinks when you show her the finished painting. I have enjoyed the exchanges with you and they have helped me to get through this difficult period. Best wishes and a happy Christmas to you both. Max

Max’s work is beautiful! Thank you very much - we are so happy!

HI Reilly, Many thanks for the great review and I am so pleased that you like my work. I have sold a lot of my paintings in the US and all of them seem to have been well received. It makes it all worthwhile when you receive such a such a nice review. I live in Poynton, my son went to York university and finally I was born in the Isle of Man, so each of the paintings represent a stage in my life. Best wishes Max

This is art! Max has captured an African elder in all his splendor on canvas. The rich hues, depth of image and loving details warms the heart. When I look upon this piece, I see strength, honor and a live well lived. I'm proud to add this amazing work to my collection and look forward to prominently displaying it soon. Thank you!

This piece is really amazing! It was packaged safely and arrived internationally in perfect condition. Most importantly, it looks even better in person. The colors and composition are wonderful and I know I'll enjoy the painting for years to come. Thanks very much!

Hi Nick, Many thanks for the great review, I always look forward to getting feed back from my clients especially when they say they like the painting. The work was based on a photograph I took whilst walking on the shore at the Point of Ayre in the Isle of Man on a wildish day and the pattern of the waves and the pebbles appealed to me. The area is right at the topmost part of the island and has strong currents and rough seas even on calm days. Best wishes and thanks again Max

The pictures were received in good condition and look great, just as per the image online. The only let down was Royal Mail who failed to deliver the next day after dispatch, which clearly wasn’t Max’s fault.

Hi Andy, Many thanks for the very nice review, I am still pursuing Royal Mail for their late delivery. It was particularily annoying as I got them to our PO in the morning so they had no excuse for the delay. Anyway, I am glad that you are pleased with the pictures, they were two of my favorites and we had them up in our house for quite some time. Best wishes Max
