Artist Statement - "Healing Landscapes" In the troubled world in which we live there is a need for beauty and for images that are soothing to the mind and spirit. Deep inside ourselves we know a vision of a peaceful world exists. I believe each person has inner landscapes representing various aspects of their being. Discovering these inner landscapes promotes both inner and outer peace.
