Overview

From the author: Therapy. That's what art is to me. And it is while I'm in these sessions that a lot of my flaws are revealed to me whenever I sit before a blank canvas. I can see my tendencies to put road blocks in my own way, preventing me from achieving perfection, something I know does not exist. Through the decades I've come to understand the 'perfection', is the enemy of 'good'. Dr. Margaret Taylor Burroughs, my art teacher at DuSable High School created an en‐ vironment in which her students could feel free to express themselves and to be them‐ selves through their art. Dr. Burroughs taught us that painting is a solitary quest, an endeavor you travel through alone I discovered how to be alone with myself. These paintings reflect my views of life and I feel about what I see. As I see it there is an abundance of beauty in the world if one takes the time to see it. Painting is the one discipline that is my sanctuary. I can go inside away from the blarring affects of our global mental conditions. I go inside to find my beauty, my peace, my love, and my truth. When I paint I feel free, truly free. If music be the food for the soul then painting must be dessert.
