I always see the influence but it's very much yours Michael.

I see the connection Michael, and do like and admire your Turneresque work! Great title by the way.

I so know that feeling! Definitely under the influence!!! Love it!

Turners influence is there but your style is strong and dominant. Great work, Michael.

Thankyou very much for such lovely comments

Being visited by Turner seems to have good results

Once again the influence of turner looming over my head. I made some prints of several of his pictures this evening which I intend to frame and put on my wall. I owe alot to him.
