Thanks, David. I love art, it shakes my senses and awakens me to new places of beauty and ways of seeing. I try to approach art as honestly as I possibly can with beginners mind, as the blank, unjudging receptor, where it comes into me and speaks to me howsoever it will, and I engage with it from my own humanity. Isnt it like a great meal, where new taste sensations keep rolling over your tongue with every chew? Without art, life would be much less bearable.

Thank you, brother....I read your email to Tanya; she was thrilled; she loves getting feedback from "non-art" folks----tends to be much more honest and authentic..... xoxDA On Mar 10, 2011, at 3:33 AM, Encore Pianos wrote: I am not trying to be clichéd or lascivious when I say that it celebrates the beauty of the female form exuberantly and without inhibition. And yes, the lines are full of emotion. Best of all, when I look at it, it elicits differing responses in me. It speaks to me directly and immediately and continues to give. I would love to see it in person. Thanks for sharing David and thanks to Tanya Ragir.

I know. Trust me, you're not the first to think that. Her work is, to me, miraculous, insanely beautiful, full of emotion, and timeless. But I may be biased.......love ya, Mark.... DA Wow, that's a sculpture?! I had to look closely to realize it wasn't the model.

She created this out of looking at a model and around 140 pounds of clay---out of thin air. Surreal.
