"The art of Joshua Humphries"
..WORDS FROM THE ARTIST
New York, NY
"I find my inspiration from roots. "Roots" is a word that conjures up so many images, but it belongs to one symbol: The symbol of Origin. 'To return'. 'To get to the heart of the matter'. 'Back to the basics'. These are all statements that strip away the facade, and deal with the foundation: The roots. Thats what I try to deal with. Thats where I turn to when I'ma 'bout to get down"

Makalesi as a Child
I am the girl in Orange. Patrina (my lil sis) is the other cutie.
Yes, We've always been funky! ;-)
I'd like to meet:
QUALITY PEOPLE. People who I can learn from and vise versa. Nothing serious, just meeting other free-thinking people to have interesting, intellectual, political converstations with.
I also like to see the world through other people's eyes. I do this by reading peoples thought process via their blogs. Got poetry? I love it! Photography and Art? Perfect! A really good blog, I'm interested! A gang of naked friends or naked pics of yourself? Hmmm... No Thanks! :-)
** I occasionally edit people from my friends list based on profile content.
"Sharing the Wealth" (2000) By: Mark Hansen
Santa Cruz, CA Artist of "Sacred Light"
"This image reveals why people are mad at the U.S. Our wealth is funded on the backs of the entire worlds' population and resources. We export illusion. We will kill to do this. There is something extremely wrong. Run for office! Vote! Recycle! Boycott sweatshop products and all tools of violence. Have compassion for our planet and global family. There are good people everywhere." - From Mark Hansen's Website

"March To Progress" (1995) -By: Mark Hansen
Santa Cruz, CA Artist of "Sacred Light
A woman with child flees in terror from the monster. The animals panic before the bloodshot eyes and weapon's scope. A man in a suit giving the peace sign, nuclear power plants as antennas stand on top the monster's head. Death masks of toxic waste and poisons spew from a missile studded face. Mindless military tanks herd corporate clear cutting loggers towards the garbage filled beach as a whale lies bleeding on the sand. Fiery nuclear mushroom clouds fill the sky as attack jets fly over glow in the darkened seats of global government.
The entire monster forms a dollar sign, capitalism, greed, materialism devoid of anything but primal survival dynamics run amok. We are our worst enemy. The sacrifice is enormous, the unnecessary suffering immense, the tools are in the hands of madmen, caught in cycles of fear. -From Mark Hansen’s site http://www.sacredlight.to
