Azorie's Dream is many peoples favorite, someone said to me once that she is almost inviting you to join her state-of-mind; I agree, I got the idea for this piece while sitting in the park with my two dogs Taylor and Grace. It was one of those first spring days when the trees have exploded in greens and pastel blossoms, the tulips and daffodils were all in bloom. The sky was beatific the breeze was constant and soft. It was a weekday so I sat under a tree and watched people in there business artie jostle around on the side walk going here and there looking straight ahead towards there destination. The Spring in Ohio is always welcomed but short lived, you gotta really get out there and enjoy it before it turns to the hot sticky breath of summer. It made me realize how important my art is to me; it reminds me to look around, enjoy the breeze, play in the rain, dig in the dirt, and bask in the sun.
