I am so very moved that my post reached out and touched you in such a profound way!<br /><br />That words... music and art have that capacity and are able to enter into the private spaces of each of us... truly demonstrates their importance as tools to help each of us to not only give spiritual support... but to receive it.<br /><br />Your words from yesterday have reached me at a time when I have been "struggling with my own demons." Thank you for your uplifting words and "presence"... they bring me Peace and Joy as well!<br /><br />Do get back to your easel Suzanne. The world is a brighter place with every post and new painting that you offer to the world. Tim would encourage that same response to your sadness.<br /><br />Rich Blerssings and...<br /><br />Good Painting!<br />Warmest regards and a hug,<br />BruceBruce Shermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13111784187521969252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3013724465609653382.post-9263215890918976632014-08-01T13:32:43.285-04:002014-08-01T13:32:43.285-04:00Bruce, thank you. thank you. thank you.

...The entire post is absolutely mesmerizing, Bruce!<br />These pieces are MUCH more than merely pretty pictures destined to a life hanging on a wall. And your tribute to Matt is deeply moving.<br />I share your connection with music and so much more...( I played and sang in clubs for a number of years).<br />Very well written, my friend.<br />Blessings.Dean H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/02834470562550878971noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3013724465609653382.post-13936019606623189952014-07-27T06:56:44.031-04:002014-07-27T06:56:44.031-04:00Good morning Sherry!... Thank you for your visit a...Good morning Sherry!... Thank you for your visit and these uplifting words!<br /><br />The purpose of my painting and this blog is to share with others. Both are equal and legitimate "voices" that I have always used to express my views of my world and my inner Self. I am transparent ... to a fault, I believe... but I DO NOT hide my Truth. I stand up and speak my mind... and leave the judgement of its worth... to others.<br /><br />"Hope"... is a word you used this morning Sherry. Keep that precious consciousness alive within "You"... always! Believe in your Self. Believe in your worthiness. "You"matter... to Me"!<br /><br />Good Painting and Happy Summer Sherry!<br />Warmest regards,<br />Bruce Bruce Shermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13111784187521969252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3013724465609653382.post-26454714527869878542014-07-27T06:00:35.497-04:002014-07-27T06:00:35.497-04:00Oh such great memories you've shared, Bruce! ...Oh such great memories you've shared, Bruce! And while I've seen all of these paintings before, placing them in the context of your memories and thoughts is awesome! You've captured in words my thoughts and memories of music...and there is a thread in there, I think, that while maybe not successfully, that I try to put into my paintings too...my perspective brought on by memories and experiences...I hope one day to be able to do this half as beautifully as you do!Autumn Leaveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04010044052621228719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3013724465609653382.post-1193940475646754082014-07-26T21:54:14.283-04:002014-07-26T21:54:14.283-04:00Good evening Wendy!...

I felt especially moved to discover the depth of blessings in my life... as encouraged by the experiences of seeing these two plays.<br /><br />I must remind you that frommy perspective.. your blog takes "Me" ... similarly to places and causes me to rethink my own journey in terms of your own wonderful photos, paintings and evocative thoughts. We share parallel journeys in many repsects... I think!<br /><br />Thank you for visiting and taking the time to comment. I deeply appreciate your kind gesture and opinions. <br /><br />Good Painting!<br />Warmest regards,<br />BruceBruce Shermanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13111784187521969252noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3013724465609653382.post-10403025908661112542014-07-26T17:00:36.750-04:002014-07-26T17:00:36.750-04:00Wow!
