Have You Ever....



I love Pink. And no, not just because her name is a brilliant color. Although, you know that I think that is way cool. What color would you be? I might try on "Azure" and maybe change my middle name to Sky. I very much admire Pink's bold and powerful expressions which are complimented by her poetic and artistic style. Surpisingly soft at times. She also seemed to share a close relationship with her father. Well, I don't really know but they did record a duet together, much in the style of Arlo Guthrie. The lyrics pour out the emotions of the Vietnam War. I think that her father wrote it and she says it was one of the first songs she sang. A very talented family.

Anyways, this video is 36 seconds from "Glitter in the Air" which she performed at the 2010 Grammy's. And for those of you who remember, wearing a very different outfit. Tee Hee. I remember that I kept thinking, "isn't she getting dizzy?" You can google it to see that full rendition. Like a million people have watched and been mesmerized by it. The music is gorgeous and the lyrics are incredible. "There you are, sitting in the garden, clutching my coffee, calling me sugar, you called me sugar" and I keep thinking OMG, Oh my gosh (no, not Usher) that I ought to try painting that handful of glitter sometime. Can't you see it now? Sparkling in your mind?

Over time I've learned not to fight a lot of things, including what my art looks like. Today, it comes from my soul and I allow it only to be source of joy. It has become one of my essential ingredients for happiness.

While my paintings are escapism, the real world reminds me daily of the work we have yet to do and the purpose that we serve. “To whom much is given, much is expected.” - Luke 12: 48

"Had lots of fun being a quirky artiste for a day! There was a cool band that played some great classic rock tunes. The temperature was well into the nineties. I loved basking in the sunshine. If you enjoy talking about art, this is a really easy way of meeting interesting people."
