🎨 David: "Oh, that I had wings like a Dove! For then would I fly away, and be at rest." Psalm 55:6, 1865
by Frederic Leighton 🏴

About the artwork:
This painting depicts the biblical King David, a frequent subject in art due to his complex character and dramatic life as described in the scriptures. The chosen verse, Psalm 55:6, expresses David’s desire for escape from the turmoil surrounding him, a theme that Leighton visualizes with a reflective and evocative representation of David yearning for peace.
In this work, David might be depicted in a moment of solitude and contemplation, perhaps looking towards the heavens or in a pose that suggests his longing for escape. The composition would likely emphasize the emotional intensity of the scene through the use of dramatic lighting and shadow, highlighting David's expression and the setting around him, which could be either a palace or a secluded outdoor space, adding to the sense of isolation and contemplation.

There used to be a good Munch exhibition in Potsdam near Berlin.
Here is a small selection - really just a very small selection - of his extensive work.

We are still amazed at all the pictures we have taken. What a piece of work, more than just the screaming. If you're wondering why it's so crooked, anyone can make it straight! mod
This world is but a canvas to our imagination.
Henry David Thoreau
“From the moment of my birth, the angels of anxiety, worry, and death stood at my side, followed me out when I played, followed me in the sun of springtime and in the glories of summer. They stood at my side in the evening when I closed my eyes, and intimidated me with death, hell, and eternal damnation. And I would often wake up at night and stare widely into the room: Am I in Hell?”
Edvard Munch
“Nature is not only all that is visible to the eye... it also includes the inner pictures of the soul.”
Edvard Munch

I submitted my art for two alumni shows for the colleges I graduated from (DCAD & MICA). I wasn't able to have an in-person senior show (thanks to COVID-19), but these made up for it. I'm happy I was able to participate in both events.
Credit for the first photo goes to a friend of mine who was able to attend in person.
Can creativity change the world? 🌎
I believe so and Im sure the artist whose work is in this exhibition in nyc inside Moynihan hall in Penn Station would agree.
A while ago I lived inside this little farmhouse. Something about the pureness and Rural feel took me back there. A simpler time.
I think it is the hand. They are notoriously hard to draw or paint. It is so realistic that I didn’t notice it and instead the piece just vibes with me. Beautiful hand. Beautiful Art. Amazing details. Yea…if art can fill ones heart with peace ✌🏾 and help us to empathize ❤️ with one another, it can certainly change the world

I'm interested in the way a physical piece of art functions in today's world as a simple but powerful communication tool.
Sometimes it's just a simple grounding- a hand holding oranges, and yet the world-wide reach still exists because when someone stands right here in front of this work, the viewer and the artist get to communicate. Right here. Right now.
Art behaves as a radical conduit and connector in this way.
This notebook has been taken apart and put back together with different materials- the paper replaced with canvas; the neat stitching replaced with bulky blue thread. It's an exploration or exercise on how sometimes the only way to shift our understanding or enact change, is to first deconstruct what is in front of us, so that it can be put back together in a new way.
This piece was one of my favorites for sure!

What is creativity? The ability to see what isntactually there. To be able to conjure up a Physical representation of an abstract thought.
My stetchbook starts with an exploration of impressionistic owls awash in color and strokes
Whitle realistic in their depiction, the colors are allowed to take over the com position. Halfway through the book, it is literally flipped into a series of character-based owls that inhabit their own colorfall world of fantasy. Both sides are awash in vibrant colors. Owls are the medium colors are the message.
On display … soon … at Bloomsbury Blends (Ashland, OR)
