A Kiss in Assissi

A Kiss in Assissi, watercolor and charcoal, 16x13" (40x32 cm.) Currently at the home of Mr. Samir Chala, of San Diego, California.

I recently finished reading and savoring THE ART SPIRIT by Robert Henri. It is a simple, deep, marvelous book. "Beauty is the sensation of pleasure in the eye of the seer. No THING is beautiful. But all things await the sensitive and imaginative mind that may be aroused to pleasurable emotion at sight of them. This is beauty."

With this quote I celebrate the 65th day of blogging! Only 300 more to go to complete my committment of posting a painting a day for a year.
