Hi Platt,
Andrew Wyeth created beautiful paintings. Yes he did. Hopefully
there will be a new flurry of activity to reintroduce him to the
public. I think there is a Wyeth Museum somewhere in New England. I
will start planning a Spring pilgrimage now.
On so many subjects you know exactly the right thing to say
accompanied by the perfect MOQ quote. This post is a perfect example
of your wisdom.
Thank you.
Marsha

Hi Marsha, Ron:
Yes, art is sanity. Why? Because by creating art you win the toughest
battle you'll ever have -- to be yourself.
Pirsig put it succinctly: "My personal feeling is that this is how any
further improvement of the world will be done: by individuals making
Quality decisions and that's all."
Creating art is an individual making Quality decisions and winning the
battle.
Andrew Wyeth won. So can we.

The Universe is uncaused, like a net of jewels in which each is a
