Thanks, Meryl.
The last video posted (with Song for Cello & Piano by Daniel Tobias), I just lost it, and cried and cried. It made me think of Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings.

Steve Walker was an amazing artist. So sad.
Sason:
Thank you so much for all these posts of his work, John.
I don't think I've ever heard of him before. What a talented artist he was!
His pictures are indeed very beautiful and touching. Even though most of them depict two people together, to me they convey a sense of sadness, loneliness and melancholy.
The one that touched my heart the most, is the painting of the little boy with his doll.
