I Shall Smile



Today is a New Day
Yesterday has Passed
Tomorrow is Near
Today I Shall take my Stand
I Shall Smile for The World
I Shall Smile for Myself
I Shall Smile for My Friends
I Shall Smile for My Love
I Shall Smile for My Family
I Shall Smile for my Dogs
I Shall Smile for the Small Things
I Shall Smile All Day long

Its Been A Long Day


 Its be one of them months, one of them year where nothing seems to go right. I haven't done a lot, in fact, nothing at all.  I have good times when art flows from my mind and times when I just wish it would. The stresses of life pull you in directions you may not wish to travel. While my spirit is strong my will is weak.

Tomorrow is a  new day, a new smile. For all of the downs of life its the small things that
make me smile. Tomorrow I will be stronger even if I am weak today. Tomorrow hold new
a new beginning in which to smile.

 

What Happens Happens

What Don't Don't

What Will Will

What Won't Won't

All Is Not Lost

My Body is Broken
My Mind is Failing
My Soul is Crushed
My Heart is Breaking

I am Sinking
I am Shaken
I am Lost
I Will Not Give Up
I Will Stand Strong

Without the Will
I don't know for how Long

Trace is a great man. He has a huge heart. We must think of the good times, and cherish the memories. You know we all had a lot of laughs a lot of good times with Trace.
No one saw this coming. I don't think he planned this. I believe he just lost his way.

We must think of this like a sickness, an illness. We can not blame ourselves though most of us probably will. I know even though I shouldn't, a part of me will. There will always be that part of me that says if I did this or I did that maybe this wouldn't have happened. But the truth is, Trace had an internal struggle which we knew nothing of, and he lost the fight.

If Trace was here, I'm fairly sure he is, he would tell everyone of us he's sorry. And I know that he would not want us to blame ourselves in any way.  I am sure that if he could, he would take it back, and do things differently. But in the middle of a crisis like that, the mind does not think straight.

I know that he would want Mary, Josh and Mathew to know, that he loves them deeply and that love will never fade and that he is very proud of his boys.
He would tell his friends, Thanks for the support of him and his family. He would tell you that we will meet again. Till then he will be watching over us.

May Showers May Bring Us June Flowers


Been kinda lazy, having some technical computer issues. My hard drive is packed full of art. Its time to move from this laptop to a desktop. But I don't want to I love my little laptop; how we become so attached to some objects I will never know. I could replace the hard drive in the laptop but really that would only be a temporary fix. And sure, I could get an external hard drive but I don't have many usb ports. So it's really time I move my art stuff to a desktop. Then I will have hard drive space to create more artwork.

It seems art is all about space and money, I can never find enough space or money  to create the things I want to. I have some great new ideas after going out yesterday and looking at a few local art galleries. I met some great people, saw some very nice art and had a great time. I really should get out more often. I went to three Art Galleries on McPherson Ave. in St. Louis, Missouri.

Philip Slein Gallery
4735 McPherson Avenue
St. Louis, MO 63108
314/361-8051
www.philipsleingallery.com
Hours: T-Sat. 11 a.m.-4 p.m.
Duane Reed Gallery

4729 McPherson Avenue
St. Louis, MO 63108
314/862-2333      
www.duanereedgallery.com
Hours: T-F 10 a.m.-5 p.m., Sat. 10 a.m.-4 p.m. and by
appointment

Houska Gallery
4728 McPherson Ave.
St. Louis, MO 63108
Phone: (314) 496-1377
http://www.houska.com/

If you're in St. Louis check them out they all have some very beautiful artwork in their galleries. There are a ton of restaurants nearby. I didn't get the chance to stop and have any cuisine as I had already had lunch and was stuffed. There is a nice variety of restaurants within a few blocks.

I have been working on some digital imagery for last week or so with the last little bit of my hard drive space. About killed my poor laptop in the process. She just cant take no more scotty.

Give me a camera, a computer, and some software and I will make your eyes bleed. :-)
Joking of course.
Maybe not you didn't get to
see the rejects.

Its Another Day


I was in the city a while back and took some photos with my very junky phone :p
  Least I was able to get some pictures. I have just got around to playing with them.

I took this image "its been edited a bit" and started off the day playing.

 
Used a few filters. And got the images below.

 
Messing around a bit more I want to do some
digital experimenting.
 
Image below is layer one of what I came up with.
You should enlarge them to see the image properly.
 
 
 
As you may have guessed below is layer one and two

 
Layer one two and three below

 
Layer one two three and four below

 
Layer one two three four and five below

 
Layer one two three four five and six below

 
All layers one to seven below

 
The image above is what I came up with experimenting
with color and filters. While it may not be a great piece of
art it was fun, at the end of the day isn't that what arts all about.

   I need some work on my video editing skills.
         However I did manage to make this video.
