positive thinking
- 2105
- acrylic assemblage
- 10" x 12-78"
- available $750
this is about positive thinking. i know, being positive is being derided in these days. some call it silly. or dillusional. but, i think we all have to hang on to our dreams and to move forward. take that idea, nurture it carefully, and take console that each bit of care will eventually reveal a sentence, a paragraph, a chapter. and whether we have more chapters. perhaps a book. or just a bunch of short stories. but that story is your story.
