Taos Rainbow
“According to my own theory of judging quality, the best art is that in which the deepest, most intense, sublime, and occasionally alien feelings are communicated … I believe that I feel what the artist felt as he painted it, and it’s an ecstatic feeling so powerful that I’m left simultaneously breathless and teary.’’ ~ Stephen Parks

The Southwest
The land I walked on informed my soul and uplifted my spirit; it seemed to speak to me, inviting me to be at home there; to discover there the wholeness for which my body mind and spirit, my whole being, yearned; walking that dry desert land was like wading in a stream that flowed over me and through me; the air was filled with a sense of mystery, of unlimited energy and of eternity; as I walked that land, I felt my mind set free, my heart rise, my spirit soar and like an eagle with outstretched wings I flew in and above that element which is my very life. Now I no longer walk that land, but there is, deep within my soul a nostalgia a longing to return and in recollection my spirit still travels there where I am whole again and at home within my own heart, for here I discover in myself the sacredness, of holy ground, that I knew when I walked that land and once again my spirit soars, my heart rejoices:
“Lo Lo Mai” everything is beautiful!
Howard O. Smith (my father)
