Very dreamlike. It's like Leger meets Rousseau.

Thanks you guys, your comments mean a lot to me. I wonder whether it is a good idea from a commercial standpoint having such a broad range?.You know, "The jack of all trades" syndrome ?.

i certainly see a clear connection throughout all of them. the "commercial standpoint" i feel, is by its nature, small-minded, conservative, limited, short-sighted, suffocating....shall i go on? we all deal with it, though. don't overthink it - great work! :)

Thank you, Andrea. Just my, 6 am Monday morning "what I am doing" blues. I am better now.
