Happy 2013!

Wishing all a Happy, Healthy, Peaceful & Creative 2013!  Entering the New Year today is like going through another doorway.  To some it may be a portal into the unknown; to others, a familiar journey.  It may seem tired or exciting; pessimistic or joyful; colorful or monochromatic.  Whatever your encounter, I hope 2013 will be your door to opportunity and success! 
This doorway is a little neglected.  The magnificent brass carved door faces, the sculpted stone, the materials are used expertly by artisans from another time.  A preserved slice of architectural beauty.  As we enter 2013 and look towards the future, I hope the past and its glories are remembered.
