           The wonders of the natural world. The Master Artist has                       surrounded us with His “gallery”. ....and in 3D..........!!!!!  He has truly brought             many of his works “to Life!”  The greatest artists of our terrestrial orb have                  never accomplished that.

         To aspire to such would indeed be “chasing the wind”. But to use God’s               blessings  of time,  talent and raw materials to create useful and eye-pleasing            works is a gift that can be used to His glory .

             Having long been involved in musical pursuits, in 1995 (at the age of 37) ...                painting got my attention. Specifically drawn to portraits, I sought                                   instruction  from a wonderful local artist who taught  me “how to see” .                          When she first  used that phrase, I was bewildered....then, in time.....                            enlightened.

           While I still have a lot of “learning how to see” left to be accomplished, I               have come to believe that artists often do possess a different perspective on the       information that falls upon their retinas .....{and eardrums.}  The artists’ perspectives are distinguishable from one another....the earth keeps whirling around....and is a little bit better as we each, use our God-given gifts, to His glory.

   To Gourd .........or not to Gourd............That is the question.

Whether ‘tis nobler ....to leave them on the vine .....in the field

Or to grasp them by the neck and yank them loose.........and......

Turn them into a guitar or maybe a goose ?
