A confession: Every 3 or 4 months I am overcome with a compulsion to sketch, ink & paint images featuring horses. This has been an enduring theme of my working life for several years at this point. Weeks go by without sparing a thought to that beautiful equine creature. Then, suddenly! Horse.

Art satiates me, it satisfies so many of my needs for challenge. Isn't "for my own satisfaction" enough reason to pursue a difficult task?
