Thought of the day…. After watching “Waking Life”, which I watch at least twice a year, I realize that the dream I’m in right now is like a cloud that’s transporting me further away from me, and closer to the center of all dreamers; a form of dreaming communion….everything that is [...]

Fog
November 27, 2011 – 8:44 am
Fog…fog…fog….everywhere! We are living in a cloud, our vision limited, our perspective changed, our travel plans delayed, so kick back and float, make some art, read a great book, let the imagination match what the fog offers….mystery.
Why history repeats itself
November 27, 2011 – 8:41 am
Do you know why history seems to repeat itself, because we’re it, and we record it, and we change it when the facts don’t add up to the truth. What is always true about us, is that we are untrue. Circular logic has always kept us occupied, because as [...]
Necessity
September 5, 2011 – 8:56 am
Drawing can best be described as necessary for communication to exist. Images are words in disguise, and sentences are images in repose. Under-valuing the necessity of art is like putting a price tag on existence itself.
“Take Your Time”
July 5, 2011 – 4:40 pm
Every visionary’s greatest thing,
Is always worthless to the other,
Visionary’s greatest thing,
Is constantly scrutinized as fleeting,
Like the passing of one’s Mother.
One can reach forward or back,
Swing around wildly,
Treat others coldly,
But really never attack.
Take your time,
Others will pass you in annoyance,
Write down, draw, paint, sculpt the sublime,
Spend your life wisely,
Don’t waste your allowance.
Sponges
May 29, 2011 – 9:48 am
We are all just sponges consuming and exerting energy, and because of this tedious condition, are continually bored. We create love, war, and lots of art to stay busy.
Male Empowerment
May 28, 2011 – 5:55 pm
Being that empowerment requires complete internalization…void of women…void of children…but not void of conflict…with ourselves, I thought it appropriate to show how pulling one’s self together requires just as much effort as pulling one’s self apart….endless self negotiation.
“The Path/ The Nature of the Beast”
April 27, 2011 – 10:43 am
Three indistinct creatures found themselves lost between a small village, a grand forest, and the city surrounding it. Car horns, engines, explosions from violent guns and the men wielding them, could not be discerned from the flurry of tropical birds screaming at them to be warned. They walked steady to the sound of their own [...]
“The Path”
April 27, 2011 – 10:18 am
On a narrow dirt path wandered three creatures; all silent and invisible to the human eye. They had traveled the same path for as long as the path had existed, and had seen, and had been involved in all circumstances related to it’s history. Every step seemed to glide through time itself, as if it [...]
“Channels”
March 22, 2011 – 4:15 pm
It’s a possibility that movement itself is, by itself, the true force of nature and balance. Stagnancy only exists when movement doesn’t, so as moving creatures, we owe it to ourselves to keep moving. Boredom is the leading cause of mental and physical deterioration. Ironically, it’s this same concept that drives humanity to constantly outgrow [...]
