i am so proud and really honoured to be here for the simple reason that i value and admire Ina Mar and Donna Malone so very very much and for the very much second reason that all my spilled Merlot has not gone to waste….lol.

i think there is a rich beauty in using red wine as a medium, or coffee or blood or any media that is not from a art supply shop…it offers a rustic deepening that is very much profound and personal like one of vincents hairs caught in his paint and remaining there glowing red or Da Vinci making his brushes from the bristles of his beard or or some of those masters who mixed in their blood to enrich their vermillion or all of us who add a little juice of Bacchus for a little extra sunshine…..thank you Ina
