Beuaty is in the eye of the beholder. This is one of our dogs Sumi. My wife thinks she is beautiful. The only truth I find is that she is a dog.

Merry Christmas and a Wonderful New Year to you all - I have learned so much from all of you, and my koi and I truly appreciate it. This dog - Cocoa - was a beautiful, ancient soul right up until the moment she died three weeks ago, and were she here today, she would be waiting for me to check on the pond before we go to bed. I hope all of you, during this season, have someone or some animal that loves you as much as she loved me, and I loved her.

I offer up that there is truth in beauty, which inspired me to create this work titled, "Pearls of Hope," the dawn of a new vision that heralds the New Year yet to come....




…a work of art bears within itself its own verification: conceptions which are devised or stretched do not stand being portrayed in images, they all come crashing down, appear sickly and pale, convince no one. But those works of art which have scooped up the truth and presented it to us as a living force — they take hold of us, compel us, and nobody ever, not even in ages to come, will appear to refute them.
--Alexander Solzhenitsyn

And so it is with our living jewels...

Happy Holidays, everyone, and may the Season be Joyous for all!

Marie

Sallybet,

A wonderful memory. The most noble soul I ever knew was a deceased boarder collie. Still hurts to think of her as gone, but what memories. I started this post as "Truth Through Beauty", but there is truth too in pure, uncomplicated love. Not romantic love. The love of a pet. The love of a Parent for their child. These are the things we should fill our lives with.

Merry Christmas and Thank You,

Richard
