A spiritual awakening is often
found and developed in
the indoor studio chapel. 
Each new creative beginning is 
a confirmation of 
the simple truth of taking care. 
And while it may all appear to be 
self-indulgent and isolating, 
every thought, every stroke, 
every caress of the brush 
adds a small refreshment 
of meaning and purpose 
to our universe. 
"Work is love made visible."
