A Fisherman's Son

A Fisherman’s Son (A Lifetime Dream To Remember) is a collection of paintings, poems and journals created and composed by the author who never had an interest in arts and poetry before 1997 and when he was in school. The book is a product of pure gifts and inspirations “handed down” to the author whose education, profession, and career are completely unrelated to arts, poetry, and creative writing. The impressionistic style of painting presented in the book is remarkable, and the poems and journals were not “professionally crafted” but more like voices “heard from above” that are meant to be shared with every soul. The book presents paintings of scenes mostly in Georgetown, Washington, D.C., Northern Virginia, Japan, New Zealand, and the Philippines. Moreover, the chapter “Imagining” contains some expressionistic creations by the author. The poems and journals reflect author’s thoughts and feelings on the subject of love, affection, existence, war and peace, and technology, and his impressions on his surroundings and life activities, inspirations, dreams, adventures, and fiction stories.
