I understand that Flickr is a non-political site, but we are living in times that challenge us to take a stand. Photography can play a role and it has played an especially powerful role in expressing a voice in so many issues that demand our attention and our care. Poster seen this morning New York's Lower East Side.
Smaller Ship I've been working to dock with the really big ship. It's a more geometric and symmetric design but will look really good with lights and etc. it's all part of the grand plan
“Back of every creation, supporting it like an arch, is faith. Enthusiasm is nothing: it comes and goes. But if one believes, then miracles occur.” ~ Henry Miller

Have a great Wednesday....will have to catch up with everyone later this evening :-) Thanks for stopping by to visit!!!!
It's always good to have a partner for support. This was taken in Valetta, Malta. The stairs are leading up to a cathedral.
In a few weeks time I'll be displaying models at the Great Western Brick Show in the UK, including my two Transformers. Both can stand up on their own, but children pulling a tablecloth or knocking the table will probably cause them to fall down, so I decided to build them supports.
Giovanni Bellini (Venice, around 1433 - Venice, 26 November 1516) - Pietà (or The Dead Christ Supported by the Virgin Mary and St John the Evangelist) - (c. 1460) - dimensions 86 × 107 cm - Milan, Pinacoteca of Brera
La tavola, datata agli anni sessanta del Quattrocento, segna un evidente affrancamento dell’artista dalla lezione di Andrea Mantegna, cui egli era legato non solo da affinità culturali ma anche da stretti vincoli di parentela (ne era il cognato).
L’esempio dell’artista padovano è ben visibile nell’incisività delle linee di contorno e nella plasticità scultorea delle figure, trascinate in primo piano a invadere lo spazio dello spettatore; tuttavia, Bellini immerge la scena entro un’atmosfera fatta di luce naturale, ammorbidendo i toni e concentrandosi, più che sulla costruzione di un rigoroso spazio prospettico, sulla rappresentazione della dolente umanità dei protagonisti; egli crea così un linguaggio nuovo che diverrà, negli anni successivi, la sua personale e inconfondibile cifra stilistica.
Properzio, il grande poeta di età augustea, fa allusione alla capacità dell’immagine di provocare il pianto nello spettatore, e ai suoi versi si rifà quanto è scritto nel cartiglio. Questa è tra le opere d’arte che producono un tale effetto.
Il dipinto, che faceva parte della collezione Sampieri di Bologna, fu donato a Brera nel 1811 dal viceré d’Italia Eugenio di Beauharnais.
The panel, dated to the years between 1465 and 1470, marks an evident emancipation of the artist from the influence of Andrea Mantegna, to whom he was linked not just by cultural affinities but also by close ties of kinship (they were brothers-in-law).
The lesson of the Paduan artist is clearly visible in the incisiveness of the outlines and the sculptural plasticity of the figures, brought into the foreground to invade the space of the observer. Yet Bellini immerses the scene in an atmosphere of natural light, softening the tones and concentrating not so much on the construction of a rigorous perspective as on conveying the sorrowful humanity of the protagonists.
In this way he creates a new language that will become, in the years to come, his personal and unmistakable stylistic mark.
Propertius, the great poet of the Augustan age whose verses are referred to on the strip along the sill, speaks of the capacity of an image to provoke tears – an effect observed with certain works, including this one.
The work, which used to be in the Sampieri collection in Bologna, was donated to Brera in 1811 by the viceroy of Italy, Eugène de Beauharnais.
