1/1/12 | | Happy New Year to you all! This painting of Jason's old tricycle is symbolic of children everywhere and the desire for Peace. May we find Peace and Joy in Jesus Who's birth we just celebrated at Christmas. |

11/19/11 | | This is our kitchen table where love abounds. The table is made out of black walnut and was missing the chairs when I bought it at a yard sale in Wenatchee. In the early seventies I found different oak chairs to place around the table of which many did not match, but that has never stopped love from surrounding that table. |

| This is a really lovely painting, Jack. So glad you listened to Jed. It says "summer" and "home", and is really perfect. Joyce | -- Joyce Paradine, 4/23/11

| Congratulations on this wonderful recognition. Thanks for sharing your great news with the community. We love your art. This painting causes me to smile, it's as if I am feeling the warmth of the sun. It also guides me to thank God for making the beauty of nature. | -- Jerry Finn, 4/23/11

12/13/10 | | This image of commissioned art is a few hours away from completion as you can see, but now the finished work is framed and very nice, but I forgot to get the last photo of it. Special people build unique homes and also collect special art, this painting now hangs in their lovely Victorian home near Stanwood, WA. along with other Dorsey originals. |
