Herm, you are so thoughtful! The reflections are beautiful. Is there a story behind the windmill?

Apologize for the rather shaky rendition but I am phasing off morphine that accompanied my recent Chemotherapy. I’m down to one every other day and still have some withdrawal affects. For those who followed my work I completed four sessions of Chemo in March with good and bad news. Good news it arrested the cancer and reduced the tumors by half. Bad news I’ll be going back on Chemo in 10 weeks.

Karen, no story this time just liked a photo I saw.

Beautiful painting, Herm. I love your reflections! This reminds me of a trip to visit friends in Amsterdam years ago, and they took me to a place nearby called
Zaanse Schans. The windmills there were beautiful, as in your painting. As others have said, delighted to hear the chemo was successful and we are all pulling for you! Hopefully, the next round of chemo will be the last! Best wishes!!
