Do not judge....

Do not judge from mere appearances; for the lift laughter that bubbles on the lip often mantles over the depths of sadness, and the serious look may be the sober veil that covers a divine peace and joy. The bosom can ache beneath diamond brooches; and many a blithe heart dances under coarse wool. ~Edwin Hubbel Chapin

  8. Hi,

    Anything one could say....other than Yes, this is a painting would be judging.
    I don't understand the purpose or what you want. If you just want kudos....show it to your Mother.

    All my best to you.

  10. Your "Do not judge" Painting is exellent. It really captures something. I also like the statement that goes along with it, some real wisdom there.
