Jungle Garden


This garden is a place of peace and serenity. It's so nice to look at when I am sick of hearing the news, with many headlines beginning with the word "Gunman." I am so tired of Gunman. He is wreaking havoc and causing bloodshed. And 24-hour news wants us to know about every horror on earth. They have to fill that time with something. The garden represents the good things God gives us; growth, renewal, beauty, and peace. It's such a pleasure to paint it.

  1. In the middle of the horrors the media push everyday into our houses, still you're able to create something as beautiful as this painting, in the company of such wise words. Thank you for sharing that peace and serenity.
