When standing on a shore, we witness the power
of the sea as the waves crash inland. When we look
to the night sky, we are imbued to contemplate the
vastness of the universe. Humbled and awed by the
natural world in which we live, Richard Ahnert was
inspired to paint stories about our relationship with
the universe. Nature unabashedly reveals her beauty,
history, mystery, power and vulnerability to us all. Our
brain is much like our environment, vast, complex and
fragile. As we push and test the limits of both, it is our
responsibility to respect, understand and
protect them. This is Holding On.
