| What is going on here, a fisheye specialty lens bending reality at Mt Vernon. |
It is a good life, I have lived well, and hope to live until I don't.
Something I read: A young child asked two bricklayers what they were doing. The first one responded, "what a silly question, I am laying bricks." The second one answered, "I am building a magnificent cathedral that will inspire people for ages." Be like the second mason.
I was exercising in the deep end of the pool one afternoon. I could see down the long hallway of the art gallery space. Twice in the 35 minutes I was in the water (I time myself) people walking down the corridor, suddenly stopped, turned and examined one of the works of art hanging on the wall. I struggle with how to describe it, but that is why we create art, that is why we curate or organize shows, that is why we do this. The show is huge, 52 works by 22 artists, putting it together was a lot of work, but if it touches people who are passing by, it is worth it. Building something bigger than the bricks.
A friend posted on social media this week, that she is in a new relationship with someone very special. It made me smile that she has found love and happiness. When you know, you know. Something bigger than the bricks.
Isn't t the glass always half full?!? I 'd rather have a good outlook, and no pun intended, but a glass always half full...of spirit too.
ReplyDeleteGin Martini, dry, please.
DeleteSeeing the gallery being used and appreciated must be so satisfying.
ReplyDeleteI am getting compliments on how the works are arranged, I sorted them, Kevin and I started in the middle working in opposite directions, I finished my half and helped him finish the other half.
DeleteThe art display looks wonderful! I would stop and look at each piece! I love seeing how people express themselves.
ReplyDeleteLet me know when you are coming, I will let the front gate know to let you in.
DeleteI agree with the second mason; that's the way to view life.
ReplyDeleteAnd that's a nice sized art exhibit; some amazing things, I imagine.
Thanks, there are some really amazing works.
DeleteThe exhibit looks terrific - lovely way to fill that long white wall and the lighting is very good!
ReplyDeleteThe wall was designed with this in mind. The lightig is great.
DeleteI love this! Something bigger than the bricks, I'm going to remember that.
ReplyDeleteThe best nugget of wisdom in over 300 pages of reading.
DeleteThat's good advice Mr Godfrey but in addition I would like to see the artwork that you have contributed to the exhibition. Please.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy art.
