I would like to start posting a daily quote, since I am one of those people who collects them...
"Let each man exercise the art he knows." Aristophanes 450 BC - 388 BC

Joonbeam
Happy 4th of July to our friends to the south. As an American living in Canada, or a Canadian Permanent Resident, I am lucky enough to celebrate Canada Day and to have fond memories of all the wonderful 4th of Julys I also celebrated. In fact, it is one of my favorite holidays; no materialism, you share it with friends and family, there are often BBQs AND fireworks! What could be better.
Today, I thought of my friend, Joony, who lives in New England, somewhat near the part of the US where I used to be in Maine. New England is steeped in history and just so darn patriotic that it is an excellent place to celebrate the 4th. Just like Ottawa, the capital of Canada, is an awesome place for us to have been able to celebrate Canada Day...
So, back to Joon. Her slogan is "Environment is everything" and I agree. She is a fellow artist who makes "recycled art with heart © ". Have some fun checking out the other cleaver things she has to say and has made by going to her blog. Happy 4th, Joonbeam!

Garlic, Yum!
"Garlic is the ketchup of intellectuals." Anonymous
Wow, that makes me feel down right brainy, since in our family, garlic is king. We eat it like it is going out of style, in a culinary way that is. I never really got into swallowing the pills of it or eating it raw. Even our little one has been eating garlic hummus since she was 7 months old and she doesn't bat an eye at the garlicky guacomole we make. The apples doesn't fall far...
PS I don't like ketchup!

"A lot of what fascinates me about photography is its ability to act as both the document and fiction, to be both true to life and completely removed from it." Ri Anderson
Well said! I was planning to post this image today and just happened to pick up one of many notebooks kicking around in the studio and found this quote which I wrote down ages ago. I love serendipity!! Here is a double exposure Spectra Polaroid print, one of a kind, that I made at the Calgary Zoo in late February. It is both reality and fantasy. And it is one of my favorite double exposures I have ever made. It has inspired me to start making prints of my originals and to hold onto the originals for the time being...
