You speak so well of the doubts, questions, surrenders involved in the painting journey, and in life, which is why I have recommended it to my students.

“Last night I woke up in middle of the night and read your book. I want to tell you how amazing and profound it is. You have touched a deep truth about the essential nature of being a human. You know that truth deep in your soul from your meditation and reading of Nisargadatta. I honor you for this essential work and tool for helping humanity. A truly unique and moving autobiography.” Nancy Herrick PA, DH
