My sincerely congrats dear Mark!!!

Well deserved my friend, my sincerely congrats!

Even in an interview, Mark's incredible mastery of word-smithing shines through. His wonderful writing - and illustrations accompanying it - have been an inspiration to me for a long time. And that's not even mentioning this man's heart of gold. I love reading his comments on my work - he sees things in my art that I didn't even see when I created it. And I've learned so much from that. About myself as much as artistic concepts and ideas. A wonderful interview!

The video... the reading... is so utterly immersive, it pulls you into a place wholly separate from the world. This is what the art of writing is, and written by a writer that has reached the pinnacle of his craft. I would like to see and hear more of this kind of thing. It was a brilliant reading.

Congratulations, Mark! Your writing is always filled with magic and wonder. This is a well deserved honor. Thank you for sharing your talents with all of us.

Thank you, dear Mark for the 'view' about what moves you in writing, the metaphors that you bring forward, it's as if this says a thousand things about you, a kind of unraveling a secret. How true the next sentence is you wrote, namely: "It's about bowing to the child inside us". This is such a valuable and veritable fact, a bit like a foundation, also to always consciously, a kind of 'take with us' on our journey through this world. A world of change, as you also described it when you are talking about that synthesizer. How special that you mention Helle who gave you the impetus to photograph, to be able to combine more of eye and soul with each other. Grandiose. It arises, or it does not arise, and somehow it is also a kind of magic between souls, souls who meet, touch during everyone's growth process that we go through on earth. I've already congratulated you in my upload, but I do it ones more; while I also want to thank you again, dear Mark, because I learned also from this interview. With love and light, Jacomina.

Dear Ricky, thank you, for reading this "Visits to the Middle Ages" so very nicely for us.

Congratulations Mark! I can't think of anyone more deserving, for your sublime gallery and your many kinds of help and always support! Wish our old friends were still here to cheer you on, but I do! Big heart hugs for all you do!

You are a treasure. Your words are like magic. After the first couple of sentences you pull us beyond the everyday into a new place. I am sorry I have not looked at this before. I have missed much. Congrats, on being chosen artist for November.
