following a trip to vail, aspen and heavily flooded denver, i am happy to be back at work in my studio. this one is named after li gonglin (1041-1106), song dynasty artist who believed that painting was:
" not just a record of sensory experience but also a reflection of the artist's mind, a revelation of his personality, and an expression of deeply held values."
