One of my favorite paintings is Pablo Piccaso's anti-war paiting "Guernica". It is a symbol of univeral suffering and represents the horrors of war. Look deeply into the eyes of the horse and see the fear and terror that is expressed; very moving. I interpet the lightbulb in the painting as the universal light, love and unity that we share. Let us remember that in all of the madness, sadness and chaos in our human expereince, we must always focus on the "good" that rises up to meet our dark moments. We must always remain hopeful and be of service to others.

Artemisia Gentileschi's Judith and Holofernes. The only female painter in the Uffizi Gallery. And almost anything by Caravaggio. But if we were to talk sculpture, the Bernini statues in the Borghesi Gallery lift my soul.
