"Write it on your heart, that everyday is the best day of the year".
Ralph Waldo Emerson


I'm so pleased to share that I'm a finalist in the Sedona Art Prize again in December 2016.  Judge Charlie Hunter made some very entertaining comments about all of his selections. Here's a nice little story he wrote about mine:

Charlie Hunter says:"Bingham settles the question art historians have been asking for decades: "What would El Greco have made of 1940s-era Ford trucks?  He would have liked them a lot, obviously. 
 
Dang! This has some beautiful passages! Look at how the rail of the bed leads us in; to the cracked-open door; where we get to sit, in excited dread, looking at the possibly-impending thunderstorm until the fear of a hidden nest of wasps somewhere in that scratchy upholstery gets a little too unsettling, and we burst out -either direction- into that excellent field behind.

THAT, boys and girls, is what 'leading the eye through the painting" is all about."
Thanks Charlie:)
