A beautifully decorated Christmas tree, hardwood floors and brick walls offered a museum quality setting for their art. Dan McCaw, the elder of the three artists, explained many of his works illustrate a person waiting for acknowledgement that brings with it validity and credibility. “We are all waiting for our moment to find our niche in making our mark,” he said. One woman was seated with an empty chair by her, in front of a bowl of welcoming fruit, waiting to be validated. Our culture is consumed with “likes” and “followers” that show our talents are worthy of recognition and truly matter. ER
