While I'm waiting for my next painting to dry here is a link to a very nice review of my work from Taryn Day's blog THE ART ROOM.  Taryn is a fine painter who also has a painting blog called AWAKE AND PAINTING.  This is the statement from her web site:

 "Painting is about being fully awake, and fully aware of a larger world outside yourself. At best it is an act of spiritual renewal."
