Here is the quote for this work:

"The most beautiful thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the
source of all true art and science. He to whom the emotion is a stranger,
who can no longer pause to wonder and stand rapt in awe, is as good as
dead: his eyes are closed." ~Albert Einstein

Stand True started as an experiment with oil paint, texture and powdered
metals. Without really thinking too much, I spent time on how I felt about
what I was doing instead of having a plan from the start.  I like the textures,
the repeated circles are very serene, the colors are muted but rich, and the
figure is from a dream I had recently. It is under painted a deep crimson red
and then brushed with a rich ancient gold. I kept seeing this image carved
into the buildings of the town that I was in, in my dream. So, the next
morning, before I could loose the image, I ran in and sketched it onto the
background. I thought it was interesting and made me feel powerful looking
at it. Like I can stand true and take whatever comes and make it into
something beautiful, something powerful, something real and more than just
an artwork…a message, a healing, a talisman, a Sigil. I think it works.

Thanks for being here today, I hope you enjoyed.
