“Life is this simple: we are living in a world that is absolutely transparent and the divine is shining through it all the time.” ― Thomas Merton
 
Recently I was asked by a friend to remember my first profound feelings towards art. This took some reflection. As a child, art was a magical experience. Later, painting began filling me with feelings that words betrayed. “Wonder” came close. Now, with more miles of canvas and life under my belt, I find there is something more waiting to be discovered. “Art Divine” is about that. This painting evolved as a result of my gratitude for the opportunities to immerse myself in something sacred in nature and art again and again.
