less~ness~ing





All the words
they say Nothing

All the pictures
can tell no Truth

the thoughts, predicable thoughts
are thin -
            tasteless
                       and stale.


what is one to do
with all this glorious
nothingnessless


...to scream?
to shout from the bottom
of the toes?...



Eye sees You.

   I hear You.

    taste You.   smell You.

I can feel the every
Pointlessnessing

and giggle.




still

Here.

must one stand
oh so very still,
inside -
oh so painfully,   blissfully

pretendingness not to notice

...the first, 
and probably only time,

easy glide dental floss 
paired 
with a faux clown fish.

Enchanting.

Art Education - Teaching or Facilitating



Art isn't something that one can teach or one can learn. However, a person can study, investigate and explore the many art forms and expressions that are available in our world whether defined by a culture, industry or personal preferences.
Art, at least creative art, is a realm so vast, infinite and filled with unlimited potential that it cannot be approached, with any true authority, through academic institutions. In fact, I find it humorous that we even make the attempt. However, it is valuable as participants in a society to have a common language and reference base as a means of communicating and connecting with each other on a particular subject. It would be wonderful if this was the context in which art education was approached. A person could use the opportunity to study, examine and possibly even experience the various aspects of popular philosophies, techniques, disciplines and artistic movements, but this would always be kept in the context of the subject’s relativity. Too often these areas of focus are presented as absolutes, especially to our youth. Worse, they are used as a means of judging or deterring what is, ironically, in it's purest form, an expression of an individual's journey into the realms of creativity.

Perspective's play with fingers, pattern, sand, and coconuts... sun and shadow and wind were left to work the rest out on their own (per usual)


...the wind showed up to too, but aside from it's visual effects by affecting the placement of the coconuts, wind just doesn't seem to ever photograph well - thus, it didn't make it into the title


















































































...could probably have edited these to kick them up a bit... but I don't feel like it.


God I love this photo!






... petting pelicans is amazing.
