Great!!
When I saw the first line of the introduction this morning, I opened it with great anticipation as I thought you had painted something! It would not have surprised me, and makes me wonder whether you have tried? Love your thoughts……
Thanks Virginia! I just loved the quote and the philosophy behind it…so glad you enjoyed the post!

Lovely. Thank you.
What a perfectly liberating quote. The gift of an artist …to see on so many levels. This is probably the best and most true statement of inspiration I have ever read. THANK YOU!!!!
