COMMENTARY; Art is an amazing thing. Everyone has an opinion. No matter the back ground they are from. It it not measured or appreciated by the level of ones educational level, or academic pursuits. It simple is what is, one individuals perception, if you will one persons vision, into the soul of his model. It make no difference what or who the model is. It maybe a landscape, a sculpture, a still life, a photographic image of anything or an abstract design. It is this view, that artist gives to us! Like I said it (Art) is amazing, in any form. So have, by all means have your opinions. Please do. But also try not to be little the art. Or the artist. After all, they did supply us with their vision! A beautiful thing, from where I sit.
