Let hope in and know that all things must pass, including all this Covid-19 craziness. Let the darkness dissipate. Let the fear move on and embrace the joyful light. We don't need to get back to what was normal, that is what brought on this acceptance of fear. Be light, be happy, be different, be … Continue reading It Won’t Be Long Now – The Hollow Ones #43

How Much Will We Burn In This Fear? – The Hollow Ones #41
Made on May 28: The news was amazing this morning. It started with the local statistics for Covid-19. The radio voice did their best to make it sound absolutely devastating and punctuated every word with fear! Aside from my belief that the statistics don't merit the fear attached and that history will this was over-dramatized … Continue reading How Much Will We Burn In This Fear? – The Hollow Ones #41
Sunset Dancing – The Hollow Ones #40
The heat is tremendous and the music fills me with joy. I imagine and hear beautiful people dancing for the rains to come and gently break the heatwave.

In a rain of 80s new wave music – The Hollow Ones #39
Spotify has caught on that I'm nostalgically in love with New Wave music from the 1980s. I didn't follow it as a teenager growing up then, but I didn't follow my own tastes back then. Friends had way too much influence over what I experienced. Thank goodness I've fallen in love with my own likes. … Continue reading In a rain of 80s new wave music – The Hollow Ones #39
Frankie Goes Dancing – The Hollow Ones #38

Lavish light shows full of pastel & neon lasers; sound … Continue reading Frankie Goes Dancing – The Hollow Ones #38
Burning Man During Covid-19 – The Hollow Ones #37
An obscure Joe Strummer song was playing on my Spotify daily suggestions and it reminded me of The Burning Man: both the movies and the festival. I suddenly started going through the list of cancelled summer activities I've been hearing on daily downer reports (aka the news) on the radio. thinking how some bands and … Continue reading Burning Man During Covid-19 – The Hollow Ones #37
Sunset Shadows
Behind these small woods is a city dump. It gives off all the stink of the rotting crap dumped into it... It smells very much like sulphur. I happen to be walking here late one afternoon and enjoying the long shadows cast by the setting sun. It was still very early Spring, so the green … Continue reading Sunset Shadows
Greyscale Sunrise At War
It's amazing how strong and vibrant the sunrise gets in the Spring over Montreal. There's always lots of humidity in the air to haze the brightness, but the sun feels like it's burning through it all to touch us with the hope of Spring and the promise of warmth in Summer. If you can imagine … Continue reading Greyscale Sunrise At War
Where Art Lived
I found this in a "to work on" folder. This is how I once had my work displayed in my house. I still use this wall to show off work, but it has become a moving feast. Paintings and other wall-hanging art, as well as ceramics that can fit on the mantlepiece are always coming … Continue reading Where Art Lived
