  2. That is a painting that gives me a sense of peace; I thought it was an older painting, but see it was painted in 1975.

  7. I was just debating, earlier today, whether to make a graphic of that quote! I love the painting. There's something very restful about it... although I do wonder why there are branches and leaves on the floor.
