putting the art in earth

I often wonder who painted the sky, but when you're in the sky, you can wonder who drew the earth, for it can be quite mad. All this blue and green can be Rothko on a not-so-linear day

bahama colors blue green

and these spots can be Pollock using a fatter brush

but this looks like Japanese script

japanese character islands

betcha it says "hurricanes fuck off"

Wordsworth probably had something to do with this

lonely as a cloud

and maybe Miro had his hand in this

but who made these alien eyes?

though i suspect O'Keefe designed its tear ducts

November abstracts

November is turning abstract on me. For example, the Peace Lilly in the bedroom decided to first go all wayang

peace lilly wayang

then it turned into ET phone home

the smoke tree -normally a stable favorite- became kinda Rothko meets Pollock when mist dropped drops on it

cotinus drops

and the mist, THE MIST, it makes everything ghostly, say Hopper meets Stephen King

and when the mist is gone, the dusk is kinda rushed, like an O'Keefe in 2 minutes

dusk

So schizo lilly's, mixed mists, rushed dusks -it's a challenge to keep up with november.

dust to more dust

When renovating a house, a few things become apparent. The work is a bit dusty

without the right tools you're screwed

so it's good to have step brothers

and even better to do it with friends

so, though the dust does go everywhere

and the rubble might seem endless

there is, as always, real beauty to be found, some literal

Sometimes, when there's smoke, there's curtain

warm lights cool shadows

Am in such a decrepit state today that i actually dragged my sorry ass to bed today around 4 for a bit of a nap. But once i got there and laid down, i saw this, so i had to get up to photograph it, and well, no napping. How i suffer for my arts.
