my passion...your entertainment
Vitae…Verba…Cruorem…Fluo…
stuck on the cross bronx expressway…
for some odd reason…a lot Philadelphian’s walk around talking to themselves…and no they were not wearing bluetooth headsets…
if i lived here, i’d be a regular at…nodding head brewery…
byob restaurants…where they cook the food…and you bring the drinks…this is a concept Denver needs…
one way to tell that the south begins in philly…all the women call you sweety…
monkey knife fight lager…chef’s burger…pesto mussels…and grog…@ nodding head brewery…
the creative process…fascinates me…to non creative types, it can look like…magic…for me, it’s about…habit…and…passion…and paying attention…
case in point…ms scribe…
she’s the only natural artist i’ve ever known…she started painting/drawing at age 4…i’m talking about images with an innate maturity and confidence…i wish i had images to show you…let’s put that on my to do list…
anyway…like i said, Amy’s a natural…she’s formally trained and educated in many media…yet her work comes from an unconscious place…this piece for example…
this was a custom job…she had three weeks…and a description…flower cocktail ring…she went through three different versions until she got something…that felt right…that’s how she works…by feel…from her heart…
which brings me to this point…we went to the philadelphia museum of art today to see an exhibition of jewelry by Alexander Calder…an artist known primarily for his sculpture…
as we walked through the exhibit, Amy and i were astounded by how comparable Amy’s work is with Calder’s…not just because they use some of the same methods and materials…
“The jewelry is not a separate thing he did,” Agro said. “He did it alongside everything he did. It’s another aspect of his sculpture.”
Agro says one reason Calder’s jewelry is less familiar is that the artist made the pieces mostly for family and friends.”
it’s uncanny…
