"I am VERY impresed with your work. Immediately perceived the depth of your spiritual vision and not just physical one. Roads always take us beyond the horizon of our current understandings. Beautiful!"Lyuri Hardishek

"Wonderful comments! I would love to see your paintings in real time as a picture of them doesn't transmit the soul quality."Susan Eleftherakis

"Very nice! You can almost smell the air as your looking down the road."Elizabeth Wilson
- 21-Sep-2006
"Somewhat surreal. Love the way you play the light and dark. I sense the softness of your images as if one is looking through a window out into the world. Roads maybe depicting always roaming, searching? Endless roads, curving, winding, gently moving with the flow of life? Maybe the after life? This is just what I feel. Love your work. You have definitely captured a unique style."Beth Greene

"On viewing your paintings, the words, peace, tranquility, serenity, bliss, healing,and spiritual come to mind. I found myself drifting off and being lulled into a meditative state. They have a very powerfully calming effect on the spirit"Mitan Sidhu

"Thank you for the beautiful, beautiful painting. It is magic. It's not really a painting, but more a lovely thought that stays there. Your painting brings a feeling of peace to our living room. I get lost everytime I look at it (good thing my LR is not big; I'd be in trouble;)"Mary Marzano

"I guess enchanting is the first word that comes to mind when viewing your beautiful paintings. Misty colors and shapes that transport you into a little dream world. I saw your work in Fairhope Alabama. It was by far the best exhibit. As soon as I pick out my favorites, you will be receiving an order. Thank you"Deborah Byrd McGreevy

"Thank you for the painting that we purchased from you at the gasparilla art fest in tampa. I placed it in our kitchen/family/ eating area so that i am always looking at it. i just can't believe how i can see something different each time I look at it, especially at different times of the day when the lighting changes. The picture just comes to life. Thank you again its just wonderful."susan pavone

"I viewed your paintings last night at the One Of A Kind Show at the Merchandise Mart in Chicago. I love them. Am looking for something to go above my fireplace. But the paintings were priced a little too high for my budget. But then I entered your website to find there are other alternatives to your art more reasonably priced. Are you planning to return to the midwest - Chicago any time next year? There are a couple photos on canvas I love but would need a larger size. Of the photos on canvas vs. canvas prints - which one appears closer to the orignal painting to the eye? I love how you could just sit back and feel yourself on the roads. Your paintings are great."Joan B. Young
- 04-Nov-2004
"I have just hung one of your photos on canvas on my wall that I purchased at Crate and Barrel. I love it , it is "Landscape". It is mezmerizing to look at . My husband and I went looking for art to hang on the wall of our new home here in Alpharetta ,Georgia . I looked on the back and saw your name and decided to look you up on the internet. Photograpy is also a passion of mine . I would love to see some of your work ,any galleries coming up soon in the area? you are very talented, thank you,."Susana Zafar

"Hi—Great guest book. I have to say that I agree with all the wonderful comments about your work. What a blessing to be able to have such an inspiring effect in others lives. I too met you at a show. It was a hot day with a helicopter that was as anoying as a mosquito on an attack mission and your paintings were the breath of fresh air. My purchase was from your miniature reproduction section. I do think I picked wisely though. It was not till much later that I realized that my picture was actually very appropriate for me at this time as I am in the process of moving. It is only a couple of blocks but represents a great deal of changes which I have come to see my road picture can visually represent. The only thing that I would add that I did not see mentioned in you guest book is that it is not only your work that is inspiring, it's also you. You are a sinning light that is reflected well through your work. Sooo keep on shinning and thanks."Dianna Lee

"Mr Turner, I saw your work at Belle Chere in Asheville. I think these are lovely. I'm sure that folks have told you that they encourage introspection..."Laurie wilson
- 26-Jul-2004
"As a fellow artist who loves photography and uses them to construct her own compositions for oil painting, your work strikes a deep chord in me, bill. i saw your work in asheville this weekend and found myself totally pulled into the images, but without words with which to describe the emotions. the unsual part about this was that i LIKED not having words. i LIKED just being able to feel whatever it was. there's definitely something metaphorical and perhaps even alchemical going on, and i feel like we've explored the same things through complementary images----my work is from photographs of people (sometimes with places in the background, sometimes not). my images are stylized, simplified and (hopefully) also allegorical. i've always wanted to be able to paint outdoor images, but get so sucked into the details, i can't see the forest for the trees and so went to oversimplifying parts of peoples' faces. anyway, thanks for your contribution to the now-rare capability we have as humans to FEEL without overanalyzation, while not losing ANY of the awareness."Paula Sarut

"Hello Bill: My first impression was "roads" how unusual, but then I said yes...there is somthing here...something intangible sparked by the images of roads... If I wasn't so broke I would buy one... Perhaps I will see you in the grove..."Galileo Sab

"Bill, As I wrote prior, I saw you in 1980 in NYC. I have about five of your paintings on photo. Have you done any exhibitions recently that I can see a catalogue? I like your road views. It is a subject I particularly enjoy. I can vividly recall a road in Durham after a rain after almost 20 years. Delighted that you stayed in the photography and art field, I only looked you up on the internet this week and like your site quite a bit. Howwever, I would like to view some of your earlier workds. Where can I see them?"Bill Herzig

"I look at residential appraisals all day as part of my job and there is often a photograph of the property's street scene. Often these street scenes are rural and are just a road curving off into trees. When I am flipping through the appraisals and one of those scenes catches my eye...well..it is a sort of emotional effect. Anyway, I was thinking I could look at a painting like that all day, then I remember seeing something similar at an art festival in Atlanta...I went to Google and typed "Paintings with roads" and your website popped up first and your images are the ones I remember from the art festival. I haven't finished looking at your sight so I will return to it now but wanted to share my route here with you for some reason."Darcy Flowers

"Robert Frost said it in his poem " The Road Untraveled ". I have traveled many roads and hope to travel many more. Always wondering about the road untraveled. The day will come when I will no longer be able to travel, but the road will not end. I will always be able to lye in bed and view Artist Turners creation of the spirit of the road, and through his wonderful creation, my desire for travel, adventure and discovery will always live on, and my soul will continue to wonder about the road untraveled."James& Lilian Russo

"I had the pleasure of meeting you at the Ft. Worth Main Street Fesival in May of this year. Your Mountain 1 painting was an emotional painting for me - absolutly beautiful! I have a specific spot in mind and will be in touch soon with measurements - we are having our home built and are not quite ready to purchase but I'll let you know! Again - it was a pleasure meeting you (I don't expect you to remember me:) - but I love your work!"Paige Funston

"I bought a small print from you-the one that you have at the top of your web page. It was more powerful than the others. Much stranger. Only recently have I figured it out. Trees don't usually grow in that shape. The trees on the right may be superimposed to give that outline. But then I saw a short little tree with that same kind of crooked bend in the mountains around Salt Lake. Only one. When I saw it, I realized I'd been looking for it. That picture has been my comfort in sorrow. Please let us know when you have new works."Nell Christopher

"I bought a small painting of yours at the Gold Coast Art Fair in Chicago. You were finishing some minor brush strokes on a canvas and asked me if it was good - it was perfect. I was a petite Hispanic woman with my blonde girlfriend. Wish I could have bought a bigger painting but I didn't think I would be buying anything. Love your style of painting since it reminds me of my ride to work along farm roads near a bigger city. The shadows in the early morning and at dusk give everything such a magical look and the colors you depict are just right. The very best!"Evelyn Santiago

"I'm a big fan. Saw your work at the St.Louis Art Fair for the second year in a row now - my favorite both times. I'm thinking of putting away some money every month so I can by one of your paintings in the future. Your style would be well suited to painting rain or fog, perhaps over a lake; have you done something like this before? Your "sunset" picture with the silhouetted trees was particulalry enjoyable. Your work inspires me to take up painting on my own."Rick Hunter

Just bought a painting today at the Old Town show and am admiring it already.

"My wife and I were most impressed by your work displayed at ArtFest at Fair Park in Dallas, Texas last summer. This is my first visit to your website and I now understand my reaction to your paintings -- I was a professional photographer for 15 years, and my avocation was (and still is) photographing landscapes. In any event, I am interested in purchasing one of your paintings as a gift for my wife, who was equally impressed by your imagery and style. If you are going to have any exhibitions in Dallas this year, please let me know. Thanks"Boyce Graham
- 13-Aug-2000
"I bought one of your paintings last weekend at the Gasparilla Art Fair. I was drawn to the paintings because I am at a point in my life where I am making changes and looking down that road. I love my purchase. when I got home (after clutching my painting to my chest and scowling at potential muggers) I remembered one of my favorite poems; somehow it made my purchase come full-circle "the road goes ever on and on down from the door where it began. now far ahead the road has gone, and I must follow, if I can, pursuing it with eager feet until it joins some larger way, where many paths and errands meet. and whither then? I cannot say." Thank you"jenny zemo
