….The painting by Douglas Burns was another highlight of the show. Its colors and light motion drew me in slowly, and then stayed with me throughout my thinking about the show as a whole entity. Its placement nearing the middle of the gallery made sense to me. It is a very realized and mature piece that acted as the meditative center of the show. In the painting there is a lone man who is meditative while moving forward and away from the viewer, and this really hinged the emotion in these three strong pieces. It seemed everything that was being grappled with in the show was being dealt with truthfully and genuinely in this piece by Burns.
