New site, new me!! Not really. I have faith in Mother Earth & the wild creatures on it. The masses,,,,not so much. BC Rivers are my secret mistress' & the backyard is my hideaway.

My last sleep, in a bed, under a roof, for the next month or so, was filled with visions & dreams of standing in moving water, tossing feathers @ the finned creatures, while keeping an eye out for any creatures willing to share their home. Time to pack the truck & begin my journey north,,,,, away.

Toad went down to the river. There was Frog. He was sitting on an island by himself.
Toad stands on the shore of the river. Off in the distance is an island, where Frog sits alone.

I W H E R E T H E S I L E N C E M E E T S T H E S E A I Where the silence meets the sea, there is nowhere left to hide—only the choice to keep walking. — The Asylum Art — #AbstractArt #Expressionism #Solitude #Melancholy #ContemporaryArt #Seascape #ArtOfTheDay #art #cptsd #sea
A solitary figure walks where water meets the darkness of the shore, swallowed by fog and distance. The pale blues suggest fragility and fading hope, while the deep charcoal-black ground becomes a metaphor for the unknown. The fractured, layered textures echo an inner landscape: quiet, vast, and unresolved. Yet the figure keeps moving toward the horizon.

‘And now that you don't have to be perfect, you can be good.’ ~John Steinbeck (1902-68)
John Steinbeck sits for a photographic portrait as a young man sitting in an arm chair, wearing a casual jacket, slacks, & tshirt. He has his trademark moustache, & looks relaxed…as if holding back a quiet smile.

"Long Forgotten Swing" - Photographed September 5, 2013, in Staten Island, New York. 📷 #tree
An old tire hangs from a tree branch. At one time it was used for a swing, but it hadn't been used in a long, long time.

Well, September has arrived, & with it, my annual urge to get away to play with the griz & toss some feathers at the finned creatures. The countdown has begun......
