I was looking at some photos of my most recent trip to Stonehenge. It was a beautiful, stormy sunrise but I had to view it from a distance and behind barriers. I thought back to my very first trip to Stonehenge. At that time, one could sit on the stones and touch them. It was a very different visit. This painting is a nostalgic look back to that first visit.

I interpret the world through my own lens, more or less focused. It is always fiction. I freely add, omit, or edit this reality. This journey is successful when the art work assumes a life of its own.
