A quote by Picasso...

This quote is so relevant to today's world where some feel that life is cheap, and power is everything.

“Each second we live is a new and unique moment of the universe, a moment that will never be again. And what do we teach our children? We teach them that two and two make four, and that Paris is the capital of France. When will we also teach them what they are? We should say to each of them: Do you know what you are? You are a marvel. You are unique. In all the years that have passed, there has never been another child like you. Your legs, your arms, your clever fingers, the way you move. You may become a Shakespeare, a Michelangelo, a Beethoven. You have the capacity for anything. Yes, you are a marvel. And when you grow up, can you then harm another who is, like you, a marvel? You must work, we must all work, to make the world worthy of its children.”

Pablo Picasso

 

Looks Like Rain

It's even raining in Lima Peru. Well the weather people called it a light Drizzle. But I know it's raining in New Orleans today. So I took a weather map and turned it into an abstract and called it "Looks Like Rain". 12x12 digital painting.

Sky Valla

This is one of my latest Digital Abstract Paintings I called Sky Villa. As with almost all my abstracts, I start out with an idea and it turns into something else. That's alright though because the painting takes me along rather then the other way around. Then when I step  back and take a good look at my work, if I like what I see I take a closer look and there are shapes and features that I didn't know I did. How abstract can a person get? But it's true.
