Autumn with it’s beautiful colors and delicious smell is in full ‘bloom’. The USA have chosen their next president. I fear for the world, but I’m past despairing. I think that we as artists (and everyone else who feels the same way) have to pick up our brushes, musical instruments, dancing shoes and pens and get to work even harder than we’ve ever done before. We need to create beauty, because the act of creating beauty breeds hope! So hurry up, don’t hesitate, create, create and create more art!
