other artists

I share other artists with you today...

These are from 2006. I saw some of the 2007 work in Florence in December.

Art has a place other than to decorate the houses of the wealthy. I would rather put my work in a home than a house... or in a public place to speak for those who have no voice.

Can art help make a house a home? Maybe, if it is chosen with thought and love, not to match the decor.

It is time I started painting with passion... I feel stifled with commissions even though I paint with love. But first I must paint to buy more paint and large canvases. Somehow I can't get too passionate about painting to sell.

July is my personal deadline. The work for the next exhibition (late August) will be alive, painted with passion... I promise...

"No one is born hating another person because of the color of their skin, or his background, or his religion. People must learn to hate, and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love, for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite."
