I don't look at it like they lost and I won. I think everybody won because this is the right thing to do. |
People raising families don't know you can't have a painting with a Bible in it (in City Hall). The city never would have done this if we were not in such a climate of fear. |
The city is a victim in this, too, because they're just scared [of a lawsuit]. Rather than offend someone they just take it down. |
These paintings, these nice little pictures are banned? To me that is just way over the edge and yes, that made me angry. Oh, a Bible -- so what? It is art. |
This whole thing could be over with if they just hang the prints and fine, it is done. |
We are trying to promote a serious art gallery, rather than one that displays local crafts. We thought someone of his caliber would be perfect to launch this new image. |
What really upset me is censorship of the slightest hint of Christianity. |
