With each painting I create, I come closer to a subconscious Ideal. Yet, this is a fleeting gesture -- I no sooner finish a painting than I want to move on, forward, in my yearning for the Ideal. No one can help us through it, or to it; it must be discovered for ourselves and by ourselves.

Absolutely True...and do you ever wonder at the time it takes us to grow this wisdom? Your harvest certainly displays itself in this gorgeous piece. The autumnal notes of Indian red echo your hard won knowledge.
