Traveling to Russia and Painting Abstract ART

The influence of a recent trip to Russia 
is so evident in my work.
The strength
history
architectural respect
and dominance of art collections
invigorates me.
Visiting the Hermitage
is one of the most exciting 
things I have ever done as an ARTIST.
So much ART.
So much space dedicated to
the masters
the European ARTISTS
that we all study 
and love.

The architecture with its
gold paint
and colorful onion tops.
The Summer Palace.
The Amber room.

I will never forget the stunning 
ART that surrounded me.
I am planning my next trip back.
Coveting the moments
that I have spent
and wanting more.
