Lately I've been thinking

Embedded Grief II, Encaustic with gravestone rubbing

I’ve done a lot of painting lately, entered some gallery shows, set up a solo show in July/August, made sketches of ideas and written a lot about this whole idea of Searching for Beauty in this Broken World.  I’ve been settling out the different elements of this theme: How & where do we Search? What is Beauty anyway?  Why is it so easy to see what is Broken?  And when can we see that sometimes a break is what we really need?
