Discussions: Art, Photography, and the Moon

 


DAISIES c2022Bourque

FLOWERS, I COULD TAKE PHOTOS OF FLOWERS EVERYWHERE!
(and sometimes, I do pull over to get a photo)

Lately, I have been doing a lot of thinking about the arts in my life.
For me, the arts are about love. I try to capture photos of abstract images like ice cubes melting and patterns in nature. The world is filled with fascinating subject material. Almost every night, I have a late night walk and have observed the moon and her changes in color, in position and in shape. How the moon changes and watching the night sky has led to a ton of images and because I have not edited them (YET) to express my originality, the images are waiting for that mind flash that says NOW.

Walking at night, taking moon photos with my partner, or my family,
it is always about LOVE.

Grateful for the arts in my life!

ArtJeanee explains with a smile

 H ello,   it has been a long time and so much has happened in recent years. No one blog could contain it all. It could be a book. (maybe) Speaking of books, I did put together a book during the pandemic. My mom is also an artist and had always wanted to author a book. Over the years with numerous cross-country moves much of what she wrote during her life had been lost, however she had been doing paintings with her senior center, so that is the book I made for her. She wrote three short stories for it, that reflect where she is now, not where she was. Anyhow, it was an interesting experience to publish a book for mom. I learned a lot and may do one (or more) for myself at some point. Since I graduated in Dec. 2019 with my BFA, the pandemic hit, and I had to roll with the times. I learned a lot about Bitcoin, Ethereum and NFTs. In fact, I had started a series of artworks that are coffee mandalas, specifically to make a series of NFTs. As time went on and I observed the volatili...
