The Love of God.



Currently loving this talk:
"When our hearts are filled with the love of God, something good and pure happens to us. We ‘keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world.’ The more we allow the love of God to govern our minds and emotions—the more we allow our love for our Heavenly Father to swell within our hearts—the easier it is to love others with the pure love of Christ."

If you're into art...


You're probably pretty into the Frieze Art Fair.  And London's Regent's Park on an October afternoon.

And if you're into art you probably like sushi too.

And you'd probably define art as X-rays and blank canvases and streaks of blue - but especially defaced currency. 

And you'd probably wear a sweater wrapped around your waist with a levi shirt tucked at your side.

You could probably spend all day staring and thinking, or maybe just staring if you are at a loss for thoughts, but thoughts should come easily, because art's a pastiche of the ordinary, in a very non-ordinary way, non-ordinary because it's label as art.  

And if you're into art you won't really care how much an art piece is appraised, because selling art makes it all the more… well, less of what it was.  It makes art, non art, so maybe that's why they don't put price tags up on the displays, or maybe it's to separate the true artists from the buyers, because artists won't ask - they aren't supposed to care.  But possibly there aren't price tags, because what artist can truly afford to care for a million dollar rag-stuffed frame? 

But you probably do care for neon lights.

And you definitely care about art's purpose.  You'll wrestle with this one, and conclude that maybe art doesn't need a purpose.  But maybe art's purpose is to be beautiful or weird or so horrifyingly normal just for the sake of being beautiful, or unique, or terribly comfortable, but… possibly it'll provoke thought about the monotony of life, making it less monotonous.  

So,  if you're anything like me, you'll find yourself, asking again and again and again… What even is art? well, I don't know.

And maybe you hate art
But it takes time to like raw fish.  

Enjoy the Frieze Art Fair… captured on camera.





The x-rays


Art probably directly influencing Transformers 4… 2014 release date?  










I really like this one. by David Brian Smith called Great Expectations 


The finished product.






Art people

Art these days?

"Who run this mother?" Luckily the art world also appreciates good music (Beyonce).  I too might be an artist?… *** THE ART NEWSPAPER*** it's what the artists read. 

Sushi for the workers. 



Disheveled hair. All good art appreciators can relate to this look. 


Neon signs=art.
I don't know how they transported this one to the buyer's home?


Spider= visitor or a part of the show?… What is art?




The canvas.


If you're into this stuff… probably dress like that. 




...And the Frieze Art Show made me think.
