    Marimba Mountains

    Listening to some Latin Jazz so guess I made off with that mood for this. I also am trying something new I resized in in Photoshop and sectioned into thirds with some overlap since my printer will only print
    a 17" x25" paper. I plan on gluing it to a carry sheet and then using some Acrylic Gel Medium I will mount it onto a 24" x 36" canvas, and then coat it with more Gel Medium Glossy.. I am hoping from a distance you will
    not be able to tell it is made of 3 sections. I will post a photo of it when its done.

    The textures and shapes are amazing Gary. I'm sure it will look beautiful when you have it printed. Looking forward to seeing a photo.

    Oh God of homeless things, look down
    And try to ease the way
    Of all the little weary paws
    That walk the world
    today.

    This is one of Your typical palette, a delightful one indeed providing a very god feeling and mood. I also love Your graphological inserts, very elegant and musical in a way. Your art re-introduce beaty, well-being and harmony into art definition which is today practically everything, thus the most undefined and understandable abstract concept by either the reason and our senses, the five ones and the additional ones perceiving qualities as aesthetic, spiritual, catartic, uplifting, harmonic, sounding, dramatic, passionate etc. ....
    Thank You! A "beautiful" art by a certainly beautiful person. Beautiful in the overall sense of bello, and we actually use still define "belle arti" all those artistic disciplines (painting, sculpture, architecture etc.) which makes furtherly beautiful to live our life and scope.

    Thanks June I will post the painting next week, I ordered a metal frame for it from Dick Blick art supplies and it will be here next Friday ( 8/5/2016) I have it glued down to a canvas and painted some UV Gloss Medium over it in two coats so it is finishing drying now.

    I like the Sea Cruise to Mexico, the background of blues and greens was a quasi seascape but I did not include that in the title but left it as a suggestive hint to palm trees warm oceans and marimba steel drum music.

    Wow what can I say, your comment certainly touches me deeply and echos my deepest intention as an artist, to give voice to all the beauty in our lives if we but stop and listen and observe in the sense that Krishnamurti taught for so many years.
