It needs to be taken as a whole, although some pieces are stronger than others just like in any family.Karen Martin Sampsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15180294856179918446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-81858631124842925.post-78993735873358626292011-03-12T04:15:32.871-08:002011-03-12T04:15:32.871-08:00Hello "You"!...

I really enjoyed it and was uplifted by the contents.<br /><br />Jobs... in dealing with his own life and death situation really places the focus on what is... as should be REALLY important to any of us.<br /><br />Samanda's painting is as always Karen... sensitive... feminine and lovely You have captured the essence of her youth... freshness... and vulnerability all in the one image.<br /><br />" I have no favourite child. I have no favourite building, and I have no masterpiece. You have to take my work as a whole, and its either a masterpiece or it isn't. There is no one thing in it. There's no taking it apart. There it is."<br /> -Frank Lloyd Wright<br /><br />That's sort of my take on my own life and my work. Think it well might apply to yours as well. What do you think?<br /><br />Good Painting!<br />Warmest regards,<br />BruceBruce Shermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13111784187521969252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-81858631124842925.post-6984101457779205392011-03-10T12:18:37.383-08:002011-03-10T12:18:37.383-08:00Thanks Carol, I hope they will be pleased...and th...Thanks Carol, I hope they will be pleased...and thanks, also, YET; glad you chose to save the link.
