Thompson for Halloween, so I can't match the memory with the man I see in current photos.<br />I began learning to paint a few months ago, after years of fandom. I'm still a big fan of yours, and this still-life is a great example of why.Tom Traubnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5006971187406934829.post-72462351413601510532010-03-08T19:32:37.262-08:002010-03-08T19:32:37.262-08:00Thanks, Frank, I'm getting more allegorical as...Thanks, Frank, I'm getting more allegorical as I get older, and that's not so bad I suppose. There's mystery in the most mundane of objects in our lives. We artists, poets, musicians... well, our job is to bring these mysteries to light, I believe, to hold to the world. Whether the world is interested or not probably doesn't matter in the end.DennyHollandStudiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13320515836815483763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5006971187406934829.post-381745707781521932010-03-08T06:28:45.876-08:002010-03-08T06:28:45.876-08:00Denny...

There are ways in which our society seems to discourage men from this type of consciousness. How blessed you and your family are that you have worked to maintain this understanding in your life. ~~ Love the painting; so meaningful.Lynda Schumacherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05770249962267325853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5006971187406934829.post-76170380593003751432010-02-24T18:40:33.741-08:002010-02-24T18:40:33.741-08:00Hey Denny a wonderful post from the heart that let...Hey Denny a wonderful post from the heart that lets us peek a little into the window of what makes you the artist we all know and love!<br /><br />Your daughters are incredibly lucky, and I cannot believe Jessie (and my neph Ben, too) is graduating from Stanford in June..see you at the ceremony!

I love the painting (of course) - those plates are not easy to paint..I teach people how to draw and paint and tell them it's easy but here I am doing a saucer at the moment and it's a pig. <br />Beautiful daddy-daughter photo! Proud daddy for sure!April Jarockahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00517334574543863066noreply@blogger.com
