And to those who are not just appreciating art for what it is, well they are the ones missing out I admire how you can speak your mind like that, I wish I could do that sometimes. :) I could not agree more.

In the end I was surprised by the result: He wasn't expecting that I did that, I wasn't expecting to "mess" with his images and we didn't expect that the result was going to like us both! so, the book was published with the "photoshoped" image. He's seventy-something, I'm 32, his work was watercolor, my photo was a digital shot, what was the importance of the medium there? that's why I totally agree with you. Sometimes we don't let art to "be itself" and appreciate it in its pure and essential form but we put it into classifications and mediums and styles, etc., we focus so much on these kind of things that we miss/forgot what is being said or what we can perceive with an artwork.

What I love most about your ART is the depth and meaning. Paint, photo, paper, canvas... the means doesn't matter. The message is riveting. Absolutely stunning!
