contemplating the stars

I read this New York Times article about a really cool film, Journey to the Stars, playing at the Hayden Planetarium at the American Museum of Natural History in New York starting on July 4th. I wish I could get a chance to see it. Alas... but if you live in the New York area you should check it out. Sounds really cool. I mean just think about this...

"Each of our bodies contains a teaspoonful of elements, like gold, oxygen, iron, carbon and so forth, from the first stars in the universe 13 billion years ago."

Now whether you believe in the Big Bang or not... that is pretty damn cool to contemplate!

Enjoy the Fourth!

fanfarlo - finish line

I discovered Fanfarlo a few weeks ago and then received an email stating you could buy their new album, Reservoir, from their website for $1. That's a great deal for some really good music. Check it out, and be sure to make the purchase this week. The offer is through July 4.

Here is an acoustic video performance for Finish Line and some other album tracks. Enjoy!

beauty

Beauty is a form of genius - is higher, indeed, than genius, as it needs no explanation. It is of the great facts in the world like sunlight, or springtime, or the reflection in dark water of that silver shell we call the moon.

internet interruption

So I had a slight internet interruption yesterday. The good thing is it gave me time to scan in some work i've been wanting to. I figured since I missed a day of posting I would give you three images today. 

These images are from the very first body of work I ever put together. They got me my first group show and into my first gallery. This series, Chapter, Verse, was the precursor to my nightswimming series. My bodies of work usually evolve from the one I worked on previously or from another I am working on at the same time. When I made this work, it was a dark time in my life, but it brought me to the place I am now so I am appreciative of my journey.
