saw the pieces for the show on your web site – they look great. There are a couple I really like – Mi Mano Entera and Label and Separate. Great lines, lots of layers. The show will be wonderful.

Thank you, I have a Google alert for everything egg tempera andyour site came up. Your work is beautiful.
Just writing my dad, who is a painter. He has a painters’s block so I sent him excerpts from Robert Motherwell’s article from 1944, “Motherwell, the Modern Painter”. He describes our dilemma as artists of distractions internally and externally and the difficulties we have shaking them off like a dog shakes water off when he emerges from water. I like what you say about Draw paint observe…Thanks for the lift!

Magical, Monica. And insight into our marvelous friend, as well. Surely she is reflected in those moon-spilled waters…

Thank you, Monica.
You captured the painting in words as eloquently as you captured the images of my life on canvas… and I treasure both…

What a moving post, Monica. You paid great tribute to both men. We can only hope that in our lives, we touch someone else’s life in a way that makes a difference. I believe both Ted and Kevin felt that in their hearts every day they were grown men.
