BLOG BURST:
"People often view a painting by taking a "look" at a work. That look may be described by some as, "that’s nice what’s next?" Too often it’s a, "let the people around me see how intellectual I am while I pose in front of this piece. " Many people don’t understand that in its base form it’s a series of dance-like steps that lead to initial enjoyment. If you love paintings, there’s an introduction; sort of like a let me look you over and see if there is an initial connection. You know, you looked intriguing from across the room and something went off in my head. You next slip and glide across to it feeling the view as much as possible. You get into a certain range; you kind of break down and wait for everything to catch up taking in all that it’s about. If you were to ask yourself at this point you’d know that the connection has already been made. A few more steps and you find yourself staring into the paintings eyes and of course the painting is staring back.

Did you know that all of this was orchestrated by the creator of the work? Most great paintings don’t just find themselves they are a direct extension of their artist initiator. The relationship and all that it displays comes vividly through to provide you with a lifetime of messages and positives that will enhance your life and never change its mind toward you."

POETIC PONTIFICATION:
"True Artists translate themselves into the works of their hand.
Creating them from their soul, viewed by woman and by man,
Works that provide messages, memories and positives alike,
Designed works, skillfully completed, worked on day and night.
They produce paintings that are a visual relationship to view.
Some seen, some not, but some truly appreciated by a few."

"Hope your week brings you a visual relationship that will engage you for a lifetime!"

"Find my paintings, or may my paint-tings find you!"

BLOG BURST:
"While "Painters" may not be zealots, members of a fanatical group, the real ones have zeal. Merriam-Webster’s Online Dictionary defines "zeal" as "eagerness and ardent interest in pursuit of something". Think about history and how many were maligned, criticized, laughed at, and put down. Today, everyone is an artist and more than that everyone’s a critic. "Feelings", "Me-ism", and "Self" and a world of non truth takes self expression to the height of hypocrisy. People who put paint on canvas are artists.

One of the things you’ll find is that real artists have a fever for their work and an unquenchable thirst to do more and do it better. They love their work, life and people. In a throw away, bi-stander world where everyone is a critic, they are the ones who know the real game is in the trying.

And for people who love paintings, they get to acquire works that speak to their souls, that encourage their lives daily, and that become priceless treasures for a lifetime."


POETIC PONTIFICATION:
"Thanks to the many who came before and gave so much.
Those who put up with all the garbage and poisoning stuff.
Those who worked when others went out to play;
Those who felt a quest to create beauty in a special way.
Those artists who created with paint and canvas every day,
Paintings beautiful with volumes of messages to say!"

"Hope you so enjoy your week. Time is precious and real relationships are few!"

"Find my paintings, or may my paint-tings find you!"

Sept. 13th Stop! Look! Recall!

BLOG BURST:
" Stop! Look close and recall that which breaks open upon your heart. What do you see that makes your mind travel, that brings back fond memories of days forgotten, that sparks the flicker of a match that once was a roaring fire?

We can sit in front of a slide show, watch video or see movies that stimulate our memory sensors and in one brief moment it’s gone. We agree with the world as it gives us truth that is really a lie. Painters take their drive, passion, ability and intellect to convey messages that leap off flat framed canvas and compel us to engage our very beings in an emotional and intellectual encounter.

Have we not taken quick fix alternatives that meet our time sensitive, scheduled lives and forgotten to taste, to see, to hear, to look, to learn how those encounters with great paintings can positively impact us for a lifetime?"

POETIC PONTIFICATION:
" Go get this, grab that; you’ve got to hear this song!
You don’t need to stop, no that’s just flat out wrong.
Loves lost, loves gain, life joys and disappointments.
Anger, selfishness, negativisms, where’s the ointment?
Stop and see and encounter Paintings calling you.
They do so much to help your life on every avenue! "

" Have a wonderful week. Find a great painting; engage and spend time with it!"

"Find my paintings, or may my paint-tings find you!"

Sept. 6th Art Paintings & Passion!

BLOG BURST:
"Passion as stated in the dictionary is "any powerful or compelling emotion or feeling". Often, Hollywood would believe it's all about sex. But, people who have a passion for something usually have not only a desire for it but an overcoming forceful drive to be involved with it. This may or may not be true in relationships and marriage today as the next best thing is just around the block and we no longer subscribe to our core beliefs as much as our core feeling of the day.

Passion in painting transcends many of these definitions because it is not only a compelling desire but an involvement which is life itself. This probably can be said for many of the passions that have been laid out before us as man strives to complete himself without the understanding of true fulfillment.

All that said, virtually all great paintings are completed as a result of their creator's passion. You can see it. You can feel it. You love it and once you understand it you don't want to live without it, a painting you desire to acquire.

One last comment, isn't it interesting how we can see the creator's passion and we can't see the Creator's passion?"


POETIC PONTIFICATION:
"Passionate Paintings aren't of one style, one medium or alike.
They are worked on until finished no matter day to night.
Passion shows through down to the canvas giving more.
They so unlock our heart, our emotion; like opening a door.
Great Paintings are a gift from the talent one does possess.
And that passion of the artist transcends all the rest."

"Have a great week ahead, stay focused and may you be blessed!"

"Find my paintings, or may my paint-tings find you!"
