“Waiting for spring” is a phrase whose meaning is entirely at the mercy of the context in which it is ensconced. In Prince Edward Island, it is an idyllic notion that anticipates the gentle and timeless transition from the peaceful deep sleep of myriad winter’s creatures and plants to birth and rebirth. In the Ukraine of 2022, it is anything but such an idyllic human construct of nature. Rather, it is the violent and immediate reality of surviving winter’s bitter cold and the coming storms amidst the debilitating and murderous indiscriminate shelling and purposeful destruction by a tyrannical megalomaniac. To live? To die? … To fight on? …To capitulate … and merely exist? To prevail, earn earthly admiration, and gain freedom from Vladimir Putin!

Thank you, Sue. Beauriful and peaceful PEI in contrast to my next painting of a battle scene in Ukraine. What a sad world! And what a pathetic and tyrannical legacy for an incredibly shortsighted and stupid man. Sorry, but I’m personally very upset and inwardly totally outraged.
Jim
