Wow is this picture ever worth a look! I absolutely LOVE it! Absolutely brilliant! It can sit on my mantle piece any day (although I don't have one). Wonderful poem and thanks for taking another look at this incredible artist. Love, Shar

Excellent captivation of a great painter Brian. This narrative says so much in the lovely poetic way of your words...Raul

He was a very creative abstract painter. I espicially like the open book portraying a rather unique hair style. Again you have captured him entirely in this short poignant narrative. Lainie.
