I welcome your kind words. The power of the internet still surprises me. What a heritage you have. I have been slowly ( very slowly ) reading The Histories by your ancestor Herodotus and long to see your homeland with my own eyes. I would love to be at Delphi when the flowers bloom as the sun rises. I've read that there can be mist of perfume that comes with dawn. It is difficult to have a deep sense of the past when the oldest evidence is a mere three hundred years. Anyway, as a friend of mine said, " there are never enough guitars". I'd love to see your work and thank you again for your thoughtfulness. You be well too, Mark Hello Yanna,

You be well too,

Greece is a country with a long and interesting past, so for the Grecian Greeks what was may be more important to what is, and what they do today with everything of value. A guitar is so sweet, I listem to guitar music when I paint. Be well, Yanna Hi Mark,
