I remember visiting this vibrant, majestic, ancient city of Bath... Home of Jane Austin, it provided inspiration for 2 of her novels. I loved the city and these paintings brought back memories and emotions. You captured its very spirit, Tom @twschaller .

"The things that are most real to me are the illusions which I create with my painting. Everything else is quicksand."
Eugène Delacroix (1798-1863), liked Goethe's 'Faust' so much that he felt compelled to capture the book's spirit in his art.
"A bridge is a meeting place.
A possibility, a metaphor."

What makes a good painting? @twschaller says: "if it is enough to draw you in a little, stay a while, and even begin to imagine your own stories, than I have succeeded. For that moment, in silent conversation, you and I have connected."
