A craze comes and goes......and lasts longer than the fad. It's a temporary passion or infatuation, a new amusement, or fashion; as, the bric-a-brac craze; the aesthetic craze....

Words and Ideas As Inspiration in Art

2010-09-25T17:46:00.000-07:00

◄♥►

As I was brainstorming for a name for a client's new website, I received inspiration for this blog post. ( I am not a prolific writer and my style is short and sweet - my brain goes a mile a minute ~ the imagination runs wild....) He had a website by the name of New Cloud which was scooped up by vultures laying in wait for the domain's expiration for the purpose of selling it back to him at an extorted price. Time has passed and now with the advent of all the information technology speak re: 'Cloud', he really wanted this domain again.

CLOUD is used as a metaphor for the Internet, based on how the Internet is depicted in computer network diagramsand is an abstraction for the complex infrastructure it conceals. - The Internet Cloud I now learned that it is an abstraction. How appropriate. I then was inspired to think outside the box. Having been a student of Latin - not by choice - it was a requirement of all students to study the language for 2 years prior to choosing a romance language, in my case Italian. I do digress. Therefore, I decided to explore the latin nimbus = cloud; and here are my findings: Nimbus = Latin shi ning cloudor an aura atmosphere, dense clouds or cloud mass, any of a variety of bright circles or arcs centered on the sun or moon, caused by the refraction or reflection of light by ice crystals suspended in the earth's atmosphere and exhibiting
prismatic coloration ranging from red inside to blue outside (distinguished from
a corona).

Wow, now, I 'm on to something. Something for my blog entry as it relates to abstract art. I also came up with a name for his new site and to my surprise, our son said " Mom, that's brilliant" He purchased the name and I have the email for posterity !!!!

I see some verses breaking through the clouds..... later .......

A Tribute to a Childhood Friend

A Tribute to a Childhood Friend

Martha Hull ~
One of the most persevering individuals that I have been privileged to know. I will not detail all the trials and tribulations that my childhood friend has had to endure. Just know that neither you, nor I would have wanted to travel in her shoes. She is a stellar example for me of one who loves life in spite of it all... Martha is generous and kindhearted. A single mother, a sister, a faithful friend, a diligent worker. She is a 'Talented Organizer' ~ call on her to de-clutter & reorganize your home, office, ............................ Martha is ACES !

Where in the world is Martha today ?!?

Thank you for allowing me to indulge myself in sharing this heartfelt sentiment with you. I am sure that we all have people in our lives whom we would want to thank for being there for us. In my way, I would like to think that I speak for all of us.

The Call of the "Elksong"

2009-08-14T10:43:00.000-07:00

Cherie Somerville, eclectic, energetic, and empathetic, has heard the call of the "Elksong".

She and Scott, her extremely supportive husband, are living "large" off the grid in the Southern Arizona Desert. Between reaping the delights of their garden to support their Vegan/Vegetarian lifestyle; and fashioning intensely powerful pieces of jewelry, she manages to also write thought provoking entries on her blog that goes by the very same name as her jewelry company: http://elksong.blogspot.com/

Elksong's jewelry reflects the essence of her surroundings. Her earrings, necklaces, and bracelets have a richness that is both intense and ethereal. She is able to find that delicate balance within her creations.

I invite you to see her entire collection here at:

http://www.1000markets.com/users/elksongjewerly

We wish them both much success in all their endeavors.

KENDRA ZVONIK
Artist and Owner of
G reenPost.Etsy.com
is extremely resourceful ~
pun intended !!!
Every scrap Kendra touches becomes ART.

Delightfully whimsical are theses : Eco Magnets http://bit.ly/3RMoZx , or perhaps some
Plantable Gift Tags , http://bit.ly/1cpGp8 , or a just lovely sampling of
After Craft Papers with Pressed Flowers, http://bit.ly/2LQaLR

Kendra has also formed TeamZvonik.Etsy.com , a collaboration with her husband, fellow fine artist, a glass blower; and is creating a new series of collage paintings utilizing the upcycled scraps from his boat canvassing:

In addition to her many endeavors, Kendra is also philanthropic. The proceeds from the sale of her painting(s) marked EtsyProjectEmbrace will go to the American Cancer Society on behalf of Laura Slocum, her good friend and fellow Etsy seller who is suffering from Ovarian Cancer http://bit.ly/1aE8Sf
We may not all be as inventive as Kendra and her husband, Christian, however, we can make a lasting impression by following in their footsteps when it comes to giving and caring about one another and leaving this place better than whence we found it.

2009-06-22T17:37:00.000-07:00

Have you ever had an encounter with an Angel ? I have and Lisa
of Rox and Things is a "Real Life Angel".

Out of the Blue, she appeared just when I needed a helping hand.

Lisa is generous with her time and resources and is quick to see a need and fill it.

It is no wonder why Lisa, owner and creator, of ROX AND THINGS, is selling her "elegant earrings" in her "angelic" Lavender Filled Trinket Boxes.

In addition to all her beautiful and absolutely fashion forward necklaces , bracelets, etc... she provides a personalized gift service and gift certificates. Looking for that special piece of jewelry for your Wedding Day , let, Lisa create a Custom Bridal Design for you and your bride's maids. Vintage redesigns are among her many design offerings.

Innocent Bliss

2009-05-16T08:20:00.000-07:00

Growing up in the 1950's, during an era when toys were not mass marketed, and parents were very selective, I have vivid remembrances of my precious childhood dolls.

In my household, we received the bulk of our toys at Christmas. My first dolls were Vogue Dolls: Ginny and Jill.

My love of fashion was definitely a result of the gorgeous clothing that my "girls" wore. Ski and skating outfits, ballet attire, and the classic wedding dress, and the adorable Chinese silk pajamas.

These dolls were a great comfort to me. After an excruciating day with the nuns in grammar school, and even into my first year of high school, I would come home, sit on the edge of my bed, still in school uniform , comb their hair and change their clothes.

After some 55 yrs., I still love dolls, although mine and all their accessories are lovingly packed and are on a shelf in my closet. This brings me to the point of this disclosure, I have just recently discovered a fellow artist online, ZouZou , who makes the most fascinating handmade dolls. Seeing her creations, brought me back to that place, long ago and far away of innocent bliss.

Her dolls are not traditional(for some they may be). Nevertheless, I believe you will see why I simply adore her work. I know that I will be gifting her adorable, fashionable and comforting dolls. Please, take a moment to enjoy her work and the next time you need a baby shower gift or a gift for that special child, go to her shop online : ZouZou.etsy.com and purchase one.
* I receive nothing from her sales. I just want you all to have an enjoyable experience. Grace
