“These are dancing trees that have become separated by an ever-changing river. The males toss their fall leaves to lure the females on the other side, who twist and shake to attract a partner. It’s dusk, and the creatures of the woodlands begin to warm up their vocal cords as the orchestra of rippling water plays on…nothing can keep these dancers apart now…no river can hold them back…and so these river dancers dance!

What a pleasant surprise to view your paintings today. They are visual proof of your beautiful nature, inside and out. How fortunate to have this life long talent. My favorite is Horse Heaven, however, your talent is really evident in Mountain Man, Homeless Man and your self-portrait.
We share February birthdays, mine is the 12th, I’ve read yours is the 13th. Hope you have a wonderful birthday and year ahead.
My favorite films were also Picnic, there will never be another dance scene like that one! Also, Bell, Book and Candle.
Your expressions through art are absolutely beautiful, and your paintings are unique surrounded by beautiful colors. One of my favorites is the butterfly. Horses are my favorite animal, along with elephants. Your artwork will be in demand till the end of time. I am very impressed. thank you for sharing Ms Novak.

I really enjoyed walking along as if walking with you in your paintings, poetry and other thoughts. Art is a garden of healing, expression, relationships and growth. Thank you.
To me, ‘River Dancers’ is especially beautiful. Perhaps it is because it reminds me of a enchanting waterway that I used to frequent as a child, a place where the magical and the fragile were so perfectly intertwined that time seemed to stand still and all I could do is observe. I think that the artist has captured an essential energy in pictorial form here. This is nature and this is art.

This painting is so beautiful. Autumn has always been my favorite time of year. It is the season where life withers and falls, at least in the trees. Yet, it is the only season in which I have not lost one I love. How does one choose which of your work is the best? I am trying to find a favorite! Well done. Thank you for sharing your work.
