Art Work

Rembrandt is generally considered one of the greatest painters in European art history and the most important in Dutch history. His contributions to art came in a period that historians call the Dutch Golden Age, in which Dutch culture, science, commerce, world power and political influence reached their pinnacle. Many of his paintings, had mythical, biblical, or historical themes. He produced over 600 paintings, 300 etchings, and 2,000 drawings.


The best history is like the art of Rembrandt casting a vivid light on certain selected causes.
On those which were best and greatest, it leaves all the rest in shadow and unseen.

Dragonfly Visits Ellie

If you eliminate the impossible, whatever is left over, however improbable, has got to be the truth.

I rarely see dragonflies, but this one came to visit while talking with a client named Jennifer.

Dragonfly symbolizes good luck, strength, peace, harmony, light and transformation,
the unconsciousness mind, defeat of self created illusions, opening one's eyes, and maturity.
