Here is an extract of my new work: vanishing gods.
I try to explain our lack of spirituality, through the decadence of our own representation of divinities or gods. These one we have created.
These pictures are about the great misunderstanding between religion and spirituality.
Less Gods and more Spirit.
The artist in the front uses pastels, while her husband, in the distance, paints in oils. They do all of their work on location. That must take a lot of patience and stamina.
During my late teens I spent some time working for a local pizza joint. One night a guy came in and asked me if I could give him change for a twenty. I complied and counted out the smaller bills. While I was counting the dough, he asked me if I could give him a couple of fives in place of the ten. All the time he kept up a lively banter. When I'd finished the transaction, he pulled out another twenty and said he forgot he had to pay some money to a friend and would appreciate change for that one too. I sighed and counted out the bills. All the while he kept up the cheerful conversation and once again he asked me to break down one of the tens. Then he asked me to give him a few bucks worth of quarters for the cigarette machine and that was it.
The next morning the manager of the store informed me that I was twenty bucks short when the receipts were tallied up. I knew immediately that I'd been had. To this day I'm not sure how the guy conned me, but con me he did.
Seeing the shady looking guy above at one of counters at the Ferry Building brought back some serious memories.

So a lot of people in the NW will time and again talk about how "everything is great," or "I love it all," or "I do not have a favorite."
Well..
I do love it all, but I also do have a favorite place. And this is it. It is the Artist Point/ Heather Meadows area. It is home to great views of Mount Baker, Mount Shuksan, and my personal favorite, Table Mountain. This place is beautiful, and reachable any time of the year as long as you are at least a little determined.
It changes with the seasons, from seas of white in the winter, to fields of copper, red, and orange in the fall. Summer brings out a collection of lakes and tarns on which the mountains can be seen reflecting.
I have spent days, and nights up here, and have never once left disappointed.
This is my favorite plasce in the world.
Hope everyone had a great weekend.

Two photos of artists at work on the old, closed department store, Knight & Lee, which was part of the John Lewis Group. I can only name 'Fark', the guy who is painting the big bird (puffin?) but the green character has been started by iSpy Artist, who painted the Grinch and Nightmare before Christmas characters, as I showed you in previous posts!
On the last evening of our trip to Portugal and Spain in 2012 Sherrie and I had the great pleasure of gathering for dinner with some of Madrid's finest painters. Special thanks to our friend Jaime Valero Perandones for setting this up and being such a fabulous host (along with his wife Chrisa) for our time in Madrid!

Bill Viola - Sculptor of Time.
A major figure in contemporary art.
The American video artist of international acclaim on display at the Musée de la Boverie.
A watercolor effect seemed appropriate for this view from Artists Point along Rim Rock Drive at Colorado National Monument. Below is Monument Canyon and once again, the Grand Mesa is on the right in the far distance. I love this place and can't wait to get back here again.
Located high on the Colorado Plateau near Grand Junction, the Colorado National Monument was established in 1911 and is managed by the National Park Service.
