Testimonials from Collectors
“Hi Kenny, I consider myself extremely fortunate to have purchased your “Snow Fire (Winter Solstice Fire Circle), England 2009 – a beautiful fine art print that I am very happy with.”
“The work has an inherent peaceful and calming presence, which now extends into my home and into my life. The high-quality presentation allows the work to quietly give more each time you look upon it.
This is particularly true for me, having visited the woodland where the work was made, but is also true for visitors into my home. A meaningful conversation starter and a serene and silent companion.”
“Matisse once said that “art should be like a good armchair which provides relaxation from physical fatigue.” I now sit in an arm chair and look out on to this image.”
“Thank you very much.”
