"This painting is dedicated to all of us who have missed out on so much because of crippling shyness.
Like this threadbare dress form that has never been out in the world, so many of us with our human imperfections and emotional scars - stay at home in a limited world of "safety".
I have found that if we can limit our negative thoughts and trust in the Divine power of positive thinking, knowing that everything will be okay, the fears that have imprisoned us will dissolve and we will be free to venture out."
~ The Artist, John Doyle
