My Interests |

| Painting and teaching. "Until The Moss Had Reached Our Lips" |
|
I'd like to meet:I love this poem by Emily Dickinson: I died for beauty, but was scarceAdjusted in the tomb, When one who died for truth was lain In an adjoining room. He questioned softly why I failed? "For beauty," I replied. "And I for truth, -the two are one; We brethren are," he said. And so, as kinsmen met a night, We talked between the rooms, Until the moss had reached our lips, And covered up our names. My entire body of work is an attempt to capture the feeling I get every time I read it. One day I might succeed, until then here are my paintings... "A Prayer For The Living" |
