We're so glad you don't put them where nobody will find them!<br /><br />There are many similarities between your work and poetry. Both are spare and focus on the essential, rather than the extraneous.

I admire every picture you put there. <br />Every day that passes we saw your artistic growth. <br />Your work shows a great artistic and human breath. <br />We can feel the breath of the white paper and the spots had.
