A good artistic image, whether of a nude or not, should have a certain degree of subtlety, a lovely blend of shade and light, haze and clarity. If it is does so, then it reflects life itself, which is rarely clear and focused, but more often murky and contradictory.

Now that Spring is in full bloom, so is the light of Spring, which has its own particular beauty.

With the coming of March, Spring will return, and with the return of Spring, will come new beauties.

Finally 2020 is over.

Hopefully 2021 will be a much better year. Or at least just a little bit better.

Regardless, the search for beauty will continue…
