Courteous comments are welcome. If a comment is not published, it may be due to a technical error. At any rate, do not take offense; it is nothing personal. Slanderous comments will not be published. Anonymity may be tolerated, but politeness is required.
I would like to respond to every comment but my schedule renders it impossible to do so. Please know that I appreciate those who take the time to share their thoughts.
How striking! That kind of art work as well as beautiful canvas art is so uplifting. I think it is an unwritten crime against humanity when repressive regimes ban and/or destroy works of art.
