COLLAGE

CONTRAST
Collage, Acrylic Drawing

A contrast of beauty and destruction.  It's amazing what we as humans can accomplish, yet shockingly devastating and backward in instances within our history.  Moving forward toward peace and better communications, and understanding as to what it means to resolve rather than destroy.   

Greetings

HAPPY THANKGIVING

A Long Time Ago & Once Upon A Time

A Long Time Ago!

Once there was a small peaceful village with a good king, but an aggressive individual could kill, and get away with it, 

Once there was the most beautiful prosperous and lustrous green land with an advanced civilization creative, and artistic of great riches that had to be well hidden in cunning secret compartments,  

Once beauty was a curse for the egotistical, and powerful to amuse them and encourage slavery with it,

Once a stern governmental takeover would directly affect, and harm the citizens without warning, nor protection, and with abrupt unacceptable brutal enforcement,

Once one could not voice their freedom of speech through protest and derive peace with it.

SURREALISM, SURREALIASMOS

"Is it, or isn't it?"  A short definition of surrealism.  Further, it is a deep subconscious that formulates our dream world.  Our emotions that imprint every organ of our body with a physical memory.  Sometimes a mental telepathy that reaches far beyond predicting the future, communicating, or a spiritual awareness from the past.  Nonetheless, an art form of expression that can be relative to your enjoyment in all mediums.  

Happy New Year 2016
