SHOW ME MAGIC
acrylic, 24 x 36

Many artists paint their desires, their hopes. I am pro-peace. Peace is seen as impractical by those who are intimidated by
the work it requires. Magic is sometimes illusion, but when something is accomplished that was formerly thought impossible,
that is also magical. What may look easy and beautiful often comes at a high cost of good practices. We’ve sacrificed so much
for war, but can’t we, instead, actively work toward peace? If we want to survive financially, emotionally, and spiritually,
we have to make the effort. I want to inspire others to break from the lock-step mode that has become a “tradition” of war.
It begins with educating ourselves about peaceful alternatives.
