Jamie Ellin Forbes,
Booth 527 Art Expo Ny , March 23-25,
Limited edition: Acrylics of varying sizes,After cutting a pic of an Orangutang out of a newspaper, when I was thirteen, I placed it in my wallet. From time to time taking a glance during a dull school day , I saw the beauty in this creature which moved me. The the moment in time where we cross over to connect to all creatures opened.
This pic was shot at the San Diego Zoo, which I visited with my beautiful friend, Bella Thorn after Art San Diego 2013.
The Soulful creature below is thinking something something. Exactly what do not know. It was the depth of his reflection that moved me.
Best to all Jamie Ellin Forbes,
