 It is a very auspicious week for my buddy from YASS... 'Duchess Em'. Not only did she get engaged... But the exhibition 'Windows to the Sacred' at the S.H. Ervin Gallery at Observatory Hill in Sydney was reviewed in the Sydney Morning Herald 'Spectrum' magazine (by Mr John McDonald) and some attention was paid to her.
 

". . . If the pictures by celebrated figures such as Crowley and Spare have a hermetic feeling, the works of contemporary esoteric artists such as Kim Nelson, seem to be pitched at a mainstream audience rather than an élite group of initiates. . . . Kim Nelson combines the skills of a classical realist with the taste of an adolescent heavy-metal fan. His version of a Pièta features a Madonna who looks like she has stepped out of the pages of a bikers’ magazine".

And so John - your problem is ? . . . . .
