I will be back blogging now… I was just waiting for the website to be finished before I resumed my chatter. There is so much to cover and we’ve just skimmed the edges. As you’ve noticed, I took one of my favorite Kenn Davis paintings and made a header out of it. This is the painting that I own personally and I call it “Writer’s Block” which is not its real name but seems to me to capture the confusion on the man’s countenance.
Join me for a new set of blogs soon.
I saw your ad on Craigslist, I tried to go to the art site but the server was not allowing a connection.
I am very sorry for your loss, that wonderful, fine light that was him has flickered and the arts community dimmed, the world as a whole has lost a beacon, and is just that bit less with his passing. However what he is to us, how he spoke to all of us, is indelible. With his work and the mark he left on his profession, and in this world, he lives on, never to be extinguished. With the importance of his voice ever present, heard, appreciated as it should be; in this way as he has always been and remains with us, for all of us he continues forever. His words, sense of irony and humor, insights and talented beauty will be everlasting. In these ways and so many others he continues to be with us, for us… this is right, as it is meant to be.
My condolences, I would love to own some small piece of this work, when you can please contact me to discuss this. Thank you, Jerry Lipp
