Entitled “The President's Levee, or All Creation going to the White House,” this 1840 engraving re-creates the liveliness of President Andrew Jackson’s raucous inauguration in which thousands of people from around the country came out to see their hero. 1840.

St Pancras New Church (so entitled to differentiate it from an older building that remains several blocks away to the north east) was built in 1819-22 to the designs of William & Henry Inwood and is a remarkable example of the then prevalent taste for Neo-Classical architecture. Few churches can claim to be as Grecian in style as this one, which boasts the unique features of two porticoes flanking the east end copied directly from the famous caryatid porch of the Erectheum on the Athenian Acropolis, complete with column figures in terracotta (molded in sections around cast-iron columns). The spindly octagonal tower is a major landmark to visitors arriving at nearby Euston Station just over the main road (as it has welcomed me on many visits to the capital).
The interior of the church continues the theme of Classical severity, with a broad flat coffered ceiling spanning the nave with the apse beyond adding a touch of enrichment. The Victorian glass in the windows does make the space a little gloomier than it could be. The galleries remain and create side aisles beneath them but otherwise the interior retains the impression of a large unified space.
I am unsure what normal opening times are for this church but I believe it is usually open in office hours during the day.

After a national search, the Public Art Virginia Beach Foundation, along with professionals from Virginia MOCA and the Chrysler Museum of Art, selected Jeff Laramore’s piece entitled “Wave,” a 35-foot stainless steel sculpture, to grace the entry to the Laskin Gateway. It rests in a 35-foot wide reflecting pool inside the Laskin Road Roundabout.
"Wave" has an open design that will allow high winds to pass through reducing resistance. To ensure longevity, the sculpture was fabricated out of a combination of marine grade stainless steel plates and stainless steel cables. And, the sculpture will be enhanced with a colorful display of programmed lighting for visibility in the evening.
The new sculpture was dedicated on Oct. 12, 2013 and provides a strong and beautiful sense of arrival to a very special destination.
Founded in 2012, the first initiative of the Foundation has been to raise funds to commission this piece for the new Gateway to Laskin Road and its continuing goal is to showcase Virginia Beach as a welcoming and creative city that takes great pride in its public spaces.
Watching all the pieces come together was an amazing process. If you get a chance take a walk around the Wave and see all the angles at night. It's simply stunning.

The emergency vet market in the United States is a free market and every doctor is entitled to collect as much as he sees fit and cover for the treatments he performs. I would like to explain in this article what are the elements that make up the cost of veterinary care, how it directly affects the quality of treatment and why it is not advisable to compromise. In fact, the work of veterinarians is a work consisting of a component of knowledge / training and a component of handwork / talent and equipment. The pricing component is divided into several vehicles: materials and laboratory work, work time, work environment and more.
Materials:
As you can imagine the vet market is a highly developed market. There are many companies that manufacture different types of materials, there are companies that import materials from abroad and as in every business there is competition between companies and differences in quality of materials, as in any business one of the methods of increasing profits is to reduce the costs. Relatively new materials that are not known for many years, materials from unknown companies, all at the expense of the pet A veterinarian who uses quality, well-known materials with good quality control will not be able to cheapen the treatment so that it will result in a loss. Something was wrong !!!
Equipment in our clinic
Our emergency clinic has advanced equipment and a range of medical services and surgeons, many innovative equipment including a digital X-ray machine, an ultrasound machine, a modern blood lab, an endoscopy, a cytology laboratory, operating rooms and hospitalization rooms. This equipment is upgraded every two to three years and allows for diagnoses and treatments at the highest level possible in the field of veterinary medicine.
Workspace:
An emergency veterinarian does not work alone and there is a team that is a separate part of the home. A good team is a very important and inseparable part of the treatment experience, and the clinic itself has surges such as water, electricity, municipal taxes, wear of equipment, etc., which are taken into consideration in the pricing of the treatments
In conclusion:
Even in an emergency vet I have no doubt that the cheapest, in most cases the most expensive, unfortunately, many patients who support me are disappointed by cheap veterinarians. Following a second round of treatments and at an additional cost - so that in the overall calculation - it is better to go for quality in the first place and not to invest twice (without talking about physical and mental suffering and investment in terms of patient time)

Museum de Fundatie Zwolle NL presents an exhibition entitled Giacometti-Chadwick, Facing Fear, to run from 22 September 2018 to 6 January 2019. The sculptures of Alberto Giacometti (1901-1966) and Lynn Chadwick (1914-2003) are manifestations of the sense of fear and disillusionment that pervaded Europe during the Cold War period. Their work bids a final farewell to pre-war romanticism and aestheticism, and lands with both feet in the raw reality of the post-war world. While Giacometti reduced the human form to its bare essentials, Chadwick created powerful archetypal images of both people and animals. The exhibition includes more than 150 works. Never before has the work of Giacometti and Chadwick been so explicitly brought together.
Their paths first crossed in 1956, when Chadwick became the youngest person ever to win the Grand Prix for Sculpture at the Venice Biennale. With only six years’ experience as a sculptor, the British artist snatched the prize from Giacometti, the hot favourite, who was thirteen years older and already a major name in Paris. Giacometti would go on to win the prize in 1962, but which of the two men was awarded it in 1956 is less significant than the fact that these two particular sculptors were the front-runners at that time. Each of them was expressing, in his own individual way, the sense of deep-seated angst that overshadowed day-to-day life in Europe in the fifties and sixties: the fear of a global nuclear disaster that would wipe out human civilisation.
Alberto Giacometti is among the most significant figures in the whole field of modern European sculpture. A member of a notable family of Swiss artists, he moved to Paris in 1922 and would remain there for the rest of his life, working as a sculptor, painter and graphic artist. After training with Émile-Antoine Bourdelle, he discovered modernism and so-called ‘primitive’ ethnographic art of Africa and Oceania. In response to these influences, his work became more abstract. In the early thirties, his Surrealist sculptures expressing subconscious emotions created a furore. From 1935, however, personal psychological tensions triggered a crisis in his life and work that led to a return to the human figure. Initially, his portraits and figures became both increasingly tiny and more and more attenuated. This thinness was to remain the most distinctive feature of Giacometti’s art. After the Second World War, he began to create the elongated, emaciated figures that would bring him worldwide fame. In all their attenuation, they reduce humanity to its very essence and appear both vulnerable and enigmatic.
In the early fifties, up-and-coming artist Lynn Chadwick managed to dislodge Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth from their dominant position in the field of British sculpture. Born in London, Chadwick had started his career as a technical draughtsman and exhibition stand designer. He took an equally constructional approach to his sculpture: rather than model his human and animal figures in clay or wax, he constructed them by welding steel rods together to create an armature and then filling in the gaps with a kind of cement. The angularity of the work being produced by him and other young British artists was described in 1952 as ‘the geometry of fear’, a reference to the constant dread of nuclear annihilation. Chadwick’s apocalyptic Dancers and stoical Watchers gave powerful expression to this sense of angst. From the early seventies, he broadened his repertoire to include subjects that seem to restore the sovereignty of the human spirit. Sculptures like Cloaked Figure and Sitting Couple no longer look threatening, but emanate a sense of composure and invulnerability.
Giacometti’s pre-war work influenced Chadwick’s development and the two men were keenly aware of each other’s presence. In addition to the vast differences, there are also many similarities between their oeuvres. Giacometti-Chadwick, Facing Fear is the product of close cooperation with the Fondation Marguerite et Aimé Maeght in Saint-Paul-de-Vence and the Chadwick Estate and Blain|Southern gallery in London.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysimachia
Lysimachia is a genus of flowering plants. It is traditionally classified in the family Primulaceae but should, according to molecular phylogenetic study, be placed to the family Myrsinaceae
Lysimachia species often have yellow flowers, and grow vigorously. They tend to grow in damp conditions. Several species within Lysimachia are commonly called loosestrife, although this name is also used for plants within the genus Lythrum.
Lysimachia species are used as food plants by the larvae of some butterflies and moths, including the Dot Moth, Grey Pug, Lime-speck Pug, Small Angle Shades and V-pug.

Hi, All:
I’m back for a day or two. While I was down, I started work on pulling my Uncle Bill’s story together. I have so much stuff. I’ve scanned almost thirty of his letters home. I’ve also scanned letters from my grandmother to Bill, miscellaneous documents, a moving account of Bill’s memorial service, a letter from the chaplain who buried him in Chester and letters to my grandparents from the parents of Bill’s flight crew. The boys died when the Wellington bomber in which they were training ditched into the Irish sea during a training mission.
In January, I will be going to Archives Canada in Ottawa to pull the files on the whole flight crew, as well as the second world war records pertaining to Bill’s friend, Cam Devine, my father, Herb Barber, and Karen’s father, George Pepper. I will also pull the first world war files for my uncles, John and Art Barber, and my great uncle, Wilbert MacDonald. It’ll take a few days of research to go through all the files. I pulled the records for Bill and his crew once before…in early 2003. At that time I photocopied quite a few records, but there are more I should have obtained.
This set of pictures were taken at #1Y Depot in Halifax, just before each of the boys shipped overseas at various times early in 1944. They still hadn’t met each other at this point, and would not meet until they crewed up in May, 1944. These images are photocopies of originals which are in Ottawa. I will try to have the originals duplicated in high quality when I go to the archives.
You’ll see the boys’ formal photos in the flight crew link given above. What a difference.
Over the next month or so, I will post the letters and documents. I think you will find them an interesting account of life in the early 1940s. Bill did a lot of things in a matter of eight or nine months.
I hope you are transported by his story as I was.
Larry was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, on January 23, 1924. His father was Roy Cuthbert Carter, and his mother was Josephine Stovel. He was one of the best educated of the crew, having achieved his senior matriculation (grade 12). He enjoyed hockey, football and track
Larry enlisted at Windsor, Ontario, on May 20, 1942. His first station was at
#5 Manning Depot in Lachine, Quebec, where he learned military discipline, aviation basics, regulations, history, and navigation. Between courses he engaged in endless drills and weapon-handling exercises.
At #3 Initial Training School, Victoriaville, Quebec, it was found that Larry had the aptitude to be a bomber pilot. He was tested on a LINK flight simulator, which was a grueling test of one’s capabilities.
While attending #11 Elementary Flying Training School at Cap de la Madelaine, Quebec, Larry flew De Havilland Moth and Fairey Fleet training aircraft.
At #5 Special Service Flying School in Brantford, Ontario, Larry trained in Avro Ansons (known as the ‘greenhouse’ because of its wrap-around cockpit).
Larry was awarded his pilot’s badge on January 10, 1943. On October 22, 1943, he embarked from Halifax, and disembarked in Britain on October 30, 1943.
Upon arriving in Britain, he was first stationed at No. 3 Personnel Reception Centre in Bournemouth, Dorset, while waiting for openings to become available at advanced training units.
I’m a little bit sketchy concerning his precise training at 26 Elementary Flying Training School at Theale in Berkshire, RAF Gaydon in Warwickshire, 14 (P) AFU at Ossington in Nottinghamshire and Dallachy, Moray, Scotland.
At 83OTU Peplow, he trained on Wellington bombers, and it was here he was killed on a night training mission, July 22/23, 1944.
The commanding officer at Victoriaville found him to be “… a bright-eyed youngster with excellent Service Spirit. [He is ] very anxious to make good as any part of aircrew. Working very hard. [He] is keen, well-disciplined and should do well as captain of an aircraft”
Larry’s body was recovered from the sea east of Afonwen Junction, Caernarvonshire, on August 4, 1944, and he was buried at Blacon cemetery in Chester, on August 4, 1944

New Deal mural entitled "A Massachusetts Countryside" painted by Jean Watson in 1940.
The mural was removed from the old post office in 1986 when a new one was completed. It hung in the town hall until 1990 but during renovations of the town hall was actually placed in the trash by the contractors. The president of the historical society saved the mural from the trash and has stored the mural in the attic of his shop since 1990. The mural was not well received in Stoughton due to it's content having nothing to do with the local "countryside".
An exhibition entitled “Geographical Indications – Identities of Territories” was held on the sidelines of the Assemblies of WIPO Member States, which met from October 2-11, 2017.
It presented the Italian geographical indications system through the most representative appellations of origin and geographical indications, their territories and representatives of producers, agro-food and wine. WIPO co-organized the event with the Government of Italy.

“BIRDS IN PARADISE”
By
Merryjoy Yamanaka
My work is entitled “Bird in Paradise”. My motivation was the tropical island setting in Saipan and its beautiful birds. As I started to draw the bird, I realized that it looked like the symbols represented in the old NMC Logo. I integrated different symbols as the Latte stone, Plumeria flower (our local symbolic flower), Hibiscus (ylang-ylang), coconut trees, beetle nuts (representing tradition and culture), and the fish (represents livelihood) in Saipan.
I expanded the basic idea by incorporate all the symbols that represent Saipan. My looking at many media sources like the phone book, calendars, menus and magazines; I discovered how many different pictures and symbols reminds one of the islands. I never realized how many different pictures and symbols give representation to the island.
My design incorporated the pictures and symbols of the island which I cut and pasted into the final artwork used in my project. I changed some of the shapes to fit into one mosaic that ties together my theme of Bird in Paradise which is the focal point of my design.
I used different kinds of pencils (6) to darken and give texture to different areas. Efforts focused on given the illusion of negative artwork by contrasting black and white areas and the range of shades of these two colors.
The design was aimed at showing and telling via beautiful pictures our island’s paradise setting. On the right side is the beach with coconut trees and the “Latte Stones” surrounded by grass on a sunny beach. In contrasting black and white, clouds float above the setting. On the left side, a large sun explodes with waves of black and white sunlight. Sunrays magnify the contrast of the birds, ocean and flowers. The flowers float in the sunray and below are ocean waves that carry them gently. But by contrast, I made large waves curling around the flowers as they pass out on the tide.
The Hibiscus is in the lower center floating on a school of fish. These fish represent the local tradition of fishing supporting our beautiful flowers which balances against the Plumeria above falling from the sky.
Design is original and unique which combines easily recognizable and picturesque symbols. The design incorporates a rhythm that each individual pictures flows into the other by simple contrasting colors and texture. The design is balanced and well proportioned to create a mosaic of action telling an island story. Culture, tradition, environment are ties together in artwork telling a local story. All the objects in the drawings are inspirational in causing the observer to journey and experience the Bird of Paradise.
Museum de Fundatie Zwolle NL presents an exhibition entitled Giacometti-Chadwick, Facing Fear, to run from 22 September 2018 to 6 January 2019. The sculptures of Alberto Giacometti (1901-1966) and Lynn Chadwick (1914-2003) are manifestations of the sense of fear and disillusionment that pervaded Europe during the Cold War period. Their work bids a final farewell to pre-war romanticism and aestheticism, and lands with both feet in the raw reality of the post-war world. While Giacometti reduced the human form to its bare essentials, Chadwick created powerful archetypal images of both people and animals. The exhibition includes more than 150 works. Never before has the work of Giacometti and Chadwick been so explicitly brought together.
Their paths first crossed in 1956, when Chadwick became the youngest person ever to win the Grand Prix for Sculpture at the Venice Biennale. With only six years’ experience as a sculptor, the British artist snatched the prize from Giacometti, the hot favourite, who was thirteen years older and already a major name in Paris. Giacometti would go on to win the prize in 1962, but which of the two men was awarded it in 1956 is less significant than the fact that these two particular sculptors were the front-runners at that time. Each of them was expressing, in his own individual way, the sense of deep-seated angst that overshadowed day-to-day life in Europe in the fifties and sixties: the fear of a global nuclear disaster that would wipe out human civilisation.
Alberto Giacometti is among the most significant figures in the whole field of modern European sculpture. A member of a notable family of Swiss artists, he moved to Paris in 1922 and would remain there for the rest of his life, working as a sculptor, painter and graphic artist. After training with Émile-Antoine Bourdelle, he discovered modernism and so-called ‘primitive’ ethnographic art of Africa and Oceania. In response to these influences, his work became more abstract. In the early thirties, his Surrealist sculptures expressing subconscious emotions created a furore. From 1935, however, personal psychological tensions triggered a crisis in his life and work that led to a return to the human figure. Initially, his portraits and figures became both increasingly tiny and more and more attenuated. This thinness was to remain the most distinctive feature of Giacometti’s art. After the Second World War, he began to create the elongated, emaciated figures that would bring him worldwide fame. In all their attenuation, they reduce humanity to its very essence and appear both vulnerable and enigmatic.
In the early fifties, up-and-coming artist Lynn Chadwick managed to dislodge Henry Moore and Barbara Hepworth from their dominant position in the field of British sculpture. Born in London, Chadwick had started his career as a technical draughtsman and exhibition stand designer. He took an equally constructional approach to his sculpture: rather than model his human and animal figures in clay or wax, he constructed them by welding steel rods together to create an armature and then filling in the gaps with a kind of cement. The angularity of the work being produced by him and other young British artists was described in 1952 as ‘the geometry of fear’, a reference to the constant dread of nuclear annihilation. Chadwick’s apocalyptic Dancers and stoical Watchers gave powerful expression to this sense of angst. From the early seventies, he broadened his repertoire to include subjects that seem to restore the sovereignty of the human spirit. Sculptures like Cloaked Figure and Sitting Couple no longer look threatening, but emanate a sense of composure and invulnerability.
Giacometti’s pre-war work influenced Chadwick’s development and the two men were keenly aware of each other’s presence. In addition to the vast differences, there are also many similarities between their oeuvres. Giacometti-Chadwick, Facing Fear is the product of close cooperation with the Fondation Marguerite et Aimé Maeght in Saint-Paul-de-Vence and the Chadwick Estate and Blain|Southern gallery in London.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yellow_Archangel
Lamiastrum galeobdolon, commonly known as Yellow Archangel, is a widespread wildflower in Europe, and has been introduced elsewhere as a garden plant. It displays the zygomorphic flower morphology, opposite leaves, and square stem typical of the mint family, Lamiaceae. The flowers are soft yellow and borne in axial clusters, with a prominent 'hood' (the dorsal lobe of the corolla) similar to that of Lamium. It works well as a ground cover because it spreads easily. Caution must be taken when planting due to its invasiveness. The leaves often have variegation, showing as silver patches arranged as a wide semicircle.
Like so many of our youth, these days, Sole believes he's entitled to whatever he wants. He eats his food and then moves Tessa off her dish so he can eat hers too. He wants me to stop flickring and hold him every two minutes and mostly I do. He expects someone to turn the bathroom tap on for him 20 times a day ... and if he wants to use Tessa's back for a pillow he just does it.
Ah to be young again when one is so naive, innocent and cute the world is your oyster.

A wide spectrum of political and community leaders have come together for a symposium entitled Brexit, Borders and the Common Good, in Mullingar.
Among those attending were government ministers, TDs and local representatives, members of the public service, churches, community and voluntary groups, as well as young people. The purpose of the event was to enable respectful and informed discussion around the issue of Brexit. Taking place on the morning of 27 September, the venue was All Saints Church of Ireland, Mullingar.
The two distinguished speakers were Archbishop John Mc Dowell (Archbishop of Armagh and Primate of All Ireland) as well as Professor Katy Hayward, Professor of Political Sociology at Queen’s University Belfast. She is an acknowledged expert on Brexit, as well as being author of the recently published book, What Do We Know and What Should We Do About the Irish Border? The Symposium was chaired by Bishop Pat Storey, the Church of Ireland Bishop of Meath and Kildare.
Due to Covid–19 attendance had to be by invitation. A wide spectrum of opinion on the matter was invited.
Brexit and the Northern Ireland Protocol has raised fears in parts of the Loyalist/Unionist community in the north and the ‘Irish Sea Border’ seems to have become a lightning rod to raise fear and damage confidence.
Speaking of his hopes for the symposium Canon Alastair Graham, rector of All Saint’s church and organiser of the event, had this to say: “In light of developments in the north regarding Brexit it seemed both appropriate and important that those of us in the midlands of Ireland would be informed of the situation. To help us in that we were delighted to have the privilege of hearing from two such distinguished speakers.”
In her presentation Prof Hayward observed that “where there is uncertainty fear can grow.” and that “… uncertainty and fear around Brexit has not yet passed.” She also said there was “… a sense that the tectonic plates are shifting.”
Prof Hayward noted that Brexit had raised existential questions for communities with regard to “territory, identity and borders”. Towards the end of her presentation, being conscious of diminishing levels of trust, she posed a question – “Is there a way of preventing a deepening of divisions?”
Archbishop McDowell began his presentation by saying that “Brexit, and now Covid–19, have exposed divisions in our society to such a degree that we are in danger of no longer being able to understand and act in the common good.”
He noted that “more of our society than we think depends on holding back on our individual or group aspirations … and saying that there are some things which can only be good for me if they are also good for you too.” He went on to say: “If we don’t start to think about that we will have a society forever divided into winners and losers. We win a political argument and say ‘right, that’s it’ we know what to do. But in a properly working democracy the people who are not in the majority are not going to go away. What am I going to do about that? Am I going to keep on poking them in the eye … or am I going to say, in the long term we are going to have to occupy the same space together, so we’re going to have to find something we can all gather around.”
Speaking specifically to young people present the Archbishop said: “Your vocation is to be the prophets of this country. Prophets are usually associated with predicting the future, but that wasn’t their public role in Israel. Prophets call communities back to their true vocation. They renew the vision of what it is to belong to a nation.” He continued, “They help to answer the questions around how do we want to live? What sort of a nation do we want to be.”
After the speakers made their presentations there was an opportunity for those attending to ask questions.
Introducing the symposium Bishop Storey said: “There have been many events organised, and conferences held over the years, and I hope this occasion will make an important contribution to building the reconciliation and understanding that is needed.”
Stapleford Park was once the home of the Sherard Family (latterly entitled Earls of Harborough) but has long ceased to be a family home and is now run as a luxury hotel.
The house is an interesting mixture of styles, with different wings betraying their respective distinct styles and eras, the most intriguing of which is the earliest part of the complex, the late medieval Lady Abigail's wing, which appears to be a mansion of c1500 that was enlarged in a surprisingly sympathetic style in the 1630s.
The most noticeable feature of this wings is its array of ornamental sculpture, most of which appears to be of late medieval date and includes a serious of rectangular relief panels of religious subjects that appear to have been reused here, and perhaps originated from a church or chapel, possibly elements of a lost reredos. There are also six late medieval statues in niches of noblemen, augmented by six more of early 17th century date to form a surprisingly homogenous sequence.
The interior of the house is for hotel guests only so I have no idea what original features lie within. The grounds too are generally the preserve of paying guests, though fortunately nobody seemed to mind me straying in for a closer look during an open day for the miniature railway in the grounds.

In this sculpture entitled "Marble Chair,” Ai Weiwei carved stone into the shape of an antique Chinese yokeback chair in a representation of the continuities and disruptions of Chinese culture that began during the Cultural Revolution and still continues today. The austere appearance of the object and its ability to represent all that has been lost in the modernization of China render it a testament to the complex historical tensions of China's past.

Entitled Play On (2007) by Robert Dawson
It comprises approximately 2,500 tiles and through seven discrete panels spans 28 metres, almost covering the upper area of the building’s façade. In this multi-sectioned mural the original black and white grid of a chessboard goes from small to large with Escher-esque corners, twists, and impossible angles. As with much of his work, the optical illusions have multi- stability, the images move inwards and outwards, being visually neither stable nor totally unstable.
Through this photographic portfolio entitled “LIQUID SUBURBS” we want to focus on the theme of suburbs understood as both physical spaces and metaphorical dimensions. In the peripheries, in modern times, we have associated in negative terms what Bauman defines as “forced individualism”, as the liberation from any possible social bond and consequent solitary management of “risk”, uncertainty and the fears that derive from it. In a “liquid” society, life, particularly in the suburbs, seems to settle down and flatten itself in an eternal arid present of future prospects, similar to quicksand, amidst increasingly heavy and immobilizing doubts and perplexities, anchored to certainties linked to a past that is not it exists more and instead persists with nostalgia in the memories of flexible men, weakening them transformative capacity of reality. To adapt to continuous change and the structural risks of the second modernity, man has preferred to abandon the thought of introspection by adopting a mentality of “survival” that feeds on a “fast” thought typical of machines. A thought that does not allow for any deep reflection of one's own experiences, which does not provide the possibility of authentically taking care of one's self and which is shown through the construction, reflected by the architecture of the suburbs (as highlighted in the portfolio), of a “patchwork” Composed of many small and fragile fragments, often devoid of ties and connections, which are unable to give meaning and significance to the existential path of the individual as well as of the family nucleus and consequently of the non-community itself.

About Dante Biss-Grayson and Sky-Eagle Collection
Artist, Designer, Poet, Writer, Activist
Being half Native American, of the Osage Nation, Dante uses the archetype as an image to guide his artistic process, getting into a trance-like state and letting the work find itself. He adheres to the Zen tradition of simple strokes converging with one idea, leaving on the canvas one decisive expression.
Dante Biss-Grayson’s art is an expression of his experiences as a combat veteran combined with the PTSD those experiences begot him. Having studied art before enlisting, he became reacquainted with painting as a means of confronting and expressing the loss, the absurdity, and the beauty of war. He writes that he “grew up as the apprentice/protégé and son of [artists] Earl Biss and Gina Gray,” surrounded by the radical art of the 1960s/70s-era Institute of American Indian Arts.
