With Pen and Brushes

Painting and Poetry, the intimate languages of the hearts, reach out in unison in this inspirational book. The artist/writer shares through images and words some of the poignant moments of life as he traveled in geography and time. The artist's works included in this book, some exploring the ethical and spiritual issues of our times, are thought provoking. "Symbols are creation of many of our strongest needs and desires. What happens when symbols are misplaced... when its familiar meanings are questioned? In my paintings, I attempt to express issues of our times, to challenge our awareness by misplaced symbols." Like the images, the poetry is a rich blend of deep sentiments and contemplative thoughts from experiences of the artist.
