Ralph Sirianni is continuing his series and
study (2003-2006) called "Peaceful World".

"Peaceful World is a real place.

It's where the freshness of each season replenishes my soul. In a world that's far from peaceful, it's the comforting moments that get us through. The struggles and the suffering drive us to seek solace. There are many diversions from the often overwhelmingly bitter news that surrounds us. Finding true peace is not an escape but rather a means for survival.

These are some of the the pieces from a series of paintings and photography titled Peaceful World. The scenes are all from the yard of my North Buffalo home." (2006)
