"I feel that there is nothing more truly artistic than to love people." Vincent Van Gogh

I am the blueberry that you saw
in that big old spiderweb
I dangle in random absurdity
like some strange poem
you might have read...

My Best Poem

how precious are dreams
that logical themes
quote facts in attempt to deny you
that magical day, when you can say
I believed!
and that's why they ARE true!

Thesis Statement
I like art, I do art,
I do art all the time,
I do alot of art
and when I'm not
sometimes I write a rhyme!

"Love is the answer"
John Lennon

These are 3 inch deep canvases, essentially they are wooden boxes with canvas on one end!

I just happened to have the one backwards to add some wire and hooks and noticed that the lamp was behind it and shining the light through. This makes me happy to see a different image, different colors anyway! from behind. i love the idea of art that isn’t static but depends on the viewer to find the proper way to see the ‘hidden’ things!

I think I am going to work with this idea, perhaps i can put glass over the back and an object inside! there is 3 inches of wood on the edges to attach to the wall so it doesn’t have to hang the traditional way! Heck, i could put it on a pedistal hmmmmm.
