I have done quite a bit of work in the publishing industry -- how about a novel?<BR/>Who would read a book about an ex-truck driver turned artist -- I would!!! What a story -- the hard parts, and the happiness -- finding love. I'm a major novel reader, and that story has legs.<BR/><BR/>I'm seeing a spot on Oprah already.<BR/>Visualize.<BR/><BR/>I'll miss your blog when you're on<BR/>holiday.

It's a bravo piece and bravo for the hospital to have such good taste! Now why don't you ask the hospital if they are ready for 10-ft piece or a diptych or triptych for their lobby :) I say they would be foolish not to go for it! This painting is like a big warm blanket,I'm definitely in love with it! CONGRATULATIONS!!!
