Looking Inside, and awaken!

A couple of weeks ago while in Chicago as I was driving by, I quickly took my camera out and snapped this picture. After looking at it for a while, I have come to the conclusion that it reminds me of people (me) moving quickly through life. Do we move so fast that we don't stop to really think about what we are doing or what that flower really smells like or what does that salad really have in it. What are the colors that really moved us today? I think we need to try to slow down and put our head back on and really observe. Enjoy your life today and everyday!!!

using perspective

We can often look at things the same way time after time, but I choose to look at them from different perspectives when thinking of a painting. I feel really little right now, maybe I am stuart little or perhaps I am looking up. What do you think when you look at the tulips? It's spring and I am energized! I am flying to Phoenix soon to help one of my daughters get settled, she has just moved there from Boulder. I sure am going to miss the fabulous restaurants and shopping there. I so hope Phoenix has plenty to offer, I am sure it does!!! I will take my camera and document images from many different perspectives.

Spring Break in Riviera Maya

This is some artwork that was displayed throughout our hotel lobby.
Upon close inspection it looked as though it was graphite on clay, which is
not new to the Mexican culture. The only thing missing or not is the color they usually
apply.
Our group joining us for dinner nightly, my son and
his senior friends. Grant why is your head tilted back?
The view from our room!
Gotta love the beach in the Riviera Maya, Mexico!!!!!
