David Ruhl: Friends, after 10 years here, I need a break and will be stepping away for a while. Thanks for all your kind reviews and support last year!

Dave
    Lucas Sizov: Dave, you will be missed! You are always my friend! Thank You for everything! Blessings!!! -
    Sange: Sorry to hear this Dave... Your poems and digital art were the best on site.
    Shame this site will never change until the members do.
    I see zero growth in so many who have been here for years still using auto settings on their cameras.
    You were one I respected for who you are Behind the scenes.. a man of faith who was always kind to all, especially to Lucas who to me is the best human on this site.
    A light will go out on Far without you.
    Wishing you all the best...
    ~Sange -
    helvi2: I am truly going to miss you Dave! Your photography and Poems have always been a true delight to see, read and review. I'm not surprised at all that several of your images were the favorites of 2019. Sange, is right about FAR dimming without your presence. Looking forward to when you return. Wishing you all the best in the meantime! :o) Nancy -

The first thing you may notice is that my art is different with almost every post. I don't have a favorite 'style'. (My wife says my sense of style is stuck in the 1970's, but that's another matter - haha!).

Van Gogh, Picasso, Monet, and even many artists on this site have a recognizable style - and that works for them. But I like to try new approaches and looks. Some work, and some don't.

I guess if I have a favorite subject, it would be trees. I really like large and strangely shaped trees and I like to use them in my art. I also care about the planet and the environment, so a lot of my art is nature-based.

I have been writing rhymes, stories, and poems most of my life, and lately I have been writing them for my art. I think it makes it more personal, and let's the viewer know my thoughts on the piece.
