Within These Pages
"In this exhibition of still life pastel paintings, I explore the beauty of the written word through art. The power of the written word in its many forms has educated and entertained us, preserved history, documented facts and brought tears, hope and enjoyment to many. Old books with their fragile pages, classics, romance, music, and even newsprint all have a unique and wonderful quality that I capture in this series of work." Denise Nonomura
"Books give a soul to the universe, wings to the mind,
flight to the imagination and life to everything" Plato
"Old books lead us on a trail of golden words
written by masters."
"Fragile pages, faded photos and other treasures hold
stories of the past."
"If you listen and watch carefully, oh the songs you
will hear and the sights you will see!"
"The journey of a lifetime starts with the turning
of a page." Rachel Anders
