Words From The Artist
One of my favorite past
times is to ask "old" people about their
lives. I am always amazed at some of their
stories. The things recounted to me by these
heroes of the "good ole' days", are not
always the peaceful times of swimming holes
and fishing trips, but usually the tragedies
that came their way and how they coped with
these experiences. Another thing I have
noticed is that no one is unchanged from
these events. A person allows themselves to
be shaped by their experiences. They can
choose to either become hard and calloused
or soft and kind. In "Pure Delight" I
had the privilege of painting one of those
men who didn't have it easy growing up, but
he allowed the "stuff of life" to make him a
gentler man, able to enjoy the delight of
his grandson and everyone else around him. I
hope he inspires you to find the joy and
delight around you.

You will find as you look back upon your life,
that the moments that stand out are the
moments when you have done things for others.

A house is built of logs and stone,
of tiles and posts and piers;
A home is built of loving deeds
that stand a thousand year.

No one is useless in this world who lightens
the burden of it to anyone else.
