Yeah, I'm OLD SCHOOOOOOL! In my time I was a River Raid Champion....1,000,000,000 points....I have a patch to prove it.I have a deep conflicting love for SNOW......It is beautiful, BUT it's painfull and can keep you a prisioner of your home for days.....UGH!!!!
Last night I did a show on operator 11, which turned into three shows........I was trying to get my brother to partake in the show, but he was late...When he did show up I had just about finished off the bottle of wine I was working on....SO thats why I have a little mumble drinking accent on this show.....This show goes on for about thirty miutes and was recorded Wednesday night at 2:30 AM!!!!!!! My shows are called NIGHT STREAM.....This episode is called Night Stream 16, which turned into three shows....It's basicly me B.S.-ing and talking about my art, my brother's art and the show in Chicago.....If you think you like what you see, join op11 and be my friend so we can chat....Here is the LINK......Check it out.....Stupid fun, please join in the future...THIS WEEKEND I'm going to to BROADCAST the show from the studio....SO if you want to check out the show without actually being there log on to op11 and watch.....I'm probably going to do a couple shows Friday night and Saturday night.....I plan on talking to the camera a bit and maybe we'll get some crowd interaction? Should be fun....PEACE..........
a little of everything.BUT in the past ten years, I have been heavily involved in art, teaching art, collecting rare and unusual plants, traveling, Koi collector, water filtration geek, building ponds, philosophizing about excistence and what it means. Many of my thoughts always ask the question why. In the world around me many people interest me. The reaction of interaction is incredible, which for me is of great interest. The universe is full of possibilties and suprises. Every day many interestesting events occur in my life. The paintings, sculptures and photos are my gifts to you....I use oils in my paintings....I sculpt with many differnt materials...My photos are exciting moments in time and space for me.........................

Music? spirtual, inspiring, emotional, poetic, prophetic, hypnotizing, energizing, liberating, bonding, painful, penetrating. A creative structure using sound waves as its medium. Sounds building patterns. Patterns we translate into our environment which help confirm our humanity. I enjoy sounds/music which trigger emotions and memories. ..................... ................... There were ORBS everywhere this night mingling in the ART MUSEUM... ..................... This is an IMAGE which appeared in the background of one of my PHOTOSDo you know who put it there???? ................. I collect old tarnished items, and I let them age.... ................... Ok, I get it, there is lots of pain in life.... ............... This is work from an old art teacher of mine....Peter Williams he is pretty good. ............... this is artwork from another old teacher of mine, Jim Pallas....He's pretty good too. .... .. ......... I thought it would be a GOOD IDEA to show some people playing music in here as you explore. ........ .....................THERE IS REALLY NO NEED FOR DEATH THROUGH WAR. MODERN SOCIETY HAS THE ABILITY FOR A UNIFIED WORLD OF PEACE....ALL OF US ARE LEARNING HOW TO GET ALONG IN THIS WORLD...WE ARE ALL CHANGING THOUGH THE COURSE OF OUR LIFE...BELIEFS AND EMOTIONS PLAY A GIANT ROLE IN OUR DESTINY....OUR EMOTIONS CAN FREE US OR DECIEVE US. THE PHYSICAL WORLD DOES NOT HAVE TO DECIEVE US ON THE MEANING OF PEACE...WE SHOULD NEVER ALLOW DEATH AS A SOLUTION FOR PEACE...HOWEVER DIFFERENT WE FIND OTHERS TO BE, IT IS NOT AN EXCUSE FOR WAR AND DEATH....THE BELIEF THAT WAR IS THE ONLY SOLUTION FOR PEACE IS A CAVEMAN MENTALITY. IT'S A GOOD THING THER WERE SOME HIPPIE CAVEMEN OR ELSE WE WOULD HAVE GONE EXTINCT LONG AGO......IT IS TIME TO RISE TO THE OCCASION..THIS IS A MOST EXCITING TIME....PEACE & FREEDOM TO THE WORLD.
