I reminisce on Grandma's hands
Her visions of Heaven's lands
Spectacles of repose so grand
Summer floral perfumes
Velvet pastures for rooms
Eternal light so divine
Ambrosia, sweeter than wine
I reminisce on Grandma's hands
Gnarled, old but natural
Her songs, hymns so musical
Her life well spent, faithful
I reminisce on Grandma's hands
Her dreams came true, that's grand
Souls in repose, in Summer-land
Her visions of Heaven's lands
Yes, I recall my Grandma's hands.

A young piano Jazz prodigy performed at the well-known Friday Jazz at LACMA (Los Angeles County Museum of Art). Four young musicians joined the artist, consisting of drums, upright bass, trombone, and tenor sax. It was the opening act for Charles Owens, an American jazz saxophonist, and flutist. It was a superb evening.

When I am finishing a picture, I hold some God-made object up to it - a rock, a flower, the branch of a tree or my hand - as a final test. If the painting stands up beside a thing man cannot make, the painting is authentic. If there's a clash between the two, it's bad art.

McKinzi is in the picture (:

The little ladybug just came to our house yesterday. How cute <3 I wish I could keep her (Let's decide that's a her. Oh human me!)
A thank to tara.biglari for her lovely testimonial (:
I listen to this song for a whole day today. So yo listen!
Today's photo tour takes us to the Magic Kingdom for a shot of the Partners Statue which is a must photograph photo for me on every Disney trip. There is just something about this statue that speaks to me especially when you have that golden hour sun hitting it. There are so many different angles you can get which can really give you a bunch of creative shots. How do you photograph the Partners Statue? Have a magical day!
I saw someone favourited this picture and then I just realized it looked like there was this tiny fox in my hand! It even had the white/greyish part at the end of the tail! :D
So I drawed a fox in it.. I know it's ugly haha but I'm not really an animal drawer. I actually hate drawing (and yes I studied illustration, sigh, long story!). At times like these I wish I had a drawing tablet! Anway, it has no legs since they are hiding behind it's tail and his front legs are ehm.. well.. just somewhere lying around ;)
Just though the idea was cute, might make a better version someday :)
Also please visit my blog, it can use some comments: angelicavis.nl/blog
Explored! :)
Yet another homage to the master, M.C. Escher and his masterpiece, "Drawing Hands". This concept however goes a bit astray of Escher's; He was fascinated by the interaction of two dimensional and three dimensional objects, whereas in this image, both the hands and the clay are three dimensional.
Nevertheless, when an idea like this occurs to me I generally act on it. So when the idea struck me at 7:45 on friday night, I rushed out to Michael's Crafts to pick up a couple boxes of modeling clay. I didn't get around to working on the concept until last night around 9:30. The sculpting of the clay forearms took me about two hours. It took another thirty minutes to photograph the model and my hands. The post production took about 4 hours.
Exploring the new medium (clay) was really fun. :)
