Dear John,
I loved your essay “Everything That is Not Us.” Beautiful and poignant. I know my Mother and Dad would have loved it as well. My Dad taught high school mathematics (for one well behaved Friday class, he would read “The Hobbit.” And my Mother was an astronomer, earth scientist and an artist. She had also read “The Hobbit,” before she met my Dad. They both loved your artwork and it’s beautiful application within the LOTR films. (And The Hobbit)! My whole family loved earth. And I will always remember advice my Mother gave in regard to Nature: “Reflect the Beauty you feel.” And THAT is exactly what you do in your beautiful paintings of landscapes!
Thank you for the beauty!
Sincerely,
Mason Trent
