something so right...

I'm hoping to jump on a couple of art opportunities...soon.  but...I'll wait...

I'll wait to share more detail when I can share more detail...and I'm hoping there will be more detail to share.

but....the point...of this blog...is...

you can go from...this...

I painted some lines....gessoed on top of an old canvas that was going to be a cherry tree....

to this...

in a couple of hours...

what is my point?   things can look completely....uncertain...but you have to have faith....you may have to scrap something you tried before....build on top of the foundation of other efforts....

and then....

voila.

something shifts...and stars align...and something wonderful happens...and when it does...


appreciate the crap out of it....create and appreciate.  when I saw the photo that I am using for this painting....

i just...I was pulled to paint it....and so....I had to paint it...and thank you to

Κωνσταντίνος Βενιέρης - (dino venieri).  

for letting me paint his incredible shot.


something so right...


you've got the cool water.

when the fever runs high,
and you've got the look of love right in your eyes
and I was in a crazy motion

'til you calmed me down....


it took a little time,
but you calmed me down.


some people never say the words, "i love you.."

it's not their style to be so bold,
some people never say the words, "i love you.."
but like a child, they're longing to be told.


they've got a wall in China,
it's a thousand miles long,
to keep out the foreigners
they made it strong,

and I've got a wall around me

that you can't even see...

it took a little time,
to get next to me.

if something goes wrong, I'm the first to admit it,
the first to admit it, but the last one to know..

if something goes right, well, it's likely to lose me.
it's apt to confuse me...

because it's such an unusual sight, oh...

I can't get used to something so right...

to something so right....


peace...and love....and getting used to something....so right and recognize it when it happens....

create opportunity....don't just wait for it to happen....

tear down the walls so opportunity can reach you.
