Lastly, THE FRONT PAGE features an appropriate quote for the theme of this issue's SPOTLIGHT that most artists can probably
relate to. In spite of our differences, we travel in the same creative boat, after all!
Until we connect again...

I hope you are all doing well.
Signs of spring are starting to show themselves as I write this UP FRONT, even though traces of
the last snowfall remain on the ground. This annual transition from one season to the next prompted
me to consider some of the lessor known paintings by one of the most influential artists of all time...
namely, Vincent van Gogh...and to create this issue's SPOTLIGHT entitled, appropriately enough,
van Gogh's Promise of Spring. I hope it provides some peace of mind to everyone during these
extremely trying times.
We received several comments from our readers regarding the SPOTLIGHT in the January/February
issue...some of which are included on the FEEDBACK page. Thank you to one and all for taking the
time to share your views. We enjoy knowing what you have to say! To those who have never
contributed a FEEDBACK about a specific SPOTLIGHT (or Artists Are Always Right in general),
we encourage you to do so. Your opinion matters! Submission details are at the bottom of the
FEEDBACK page.
