Live auction, Let It Snow

New season painting.
live au
I am starting something new. Many of you have heard about the paint a day movement. Well, this is not that. There is no way I can paint a painting each day....so I would not want to set you up to come here looking for a new painting from me everyday. However, I do paint a lot. I want to start offering my original paintings to you here on live auction.
If you find a painting you like, just email me here and I will put your bid on the list. By private message email I will let you know if you have won.
These will be big or small and you will pay the S$H price.
Let the auction begin.
I'm excited, how about you?
Be inspired,

SOUL COACHING Day 25

SOUL COACHING
DAY 25
Soul Coaching book by Denise Linn
 
Earth week has been tough for me, not because it's hard, but because I have not been feeling so great this week.
Finding the wisdom to stick with this program this week has been hit and miss.
My philosophy that I started to take up was start saying Yes to things that come my way.
I'm finding that difficult. I missed a few opportunities this week, to make a new friend, coach someone alone, and start up a business.
When I'm not feeling well I do not think clearly. I do not think at all. Going back to correct these things seems, risky. If my first thought was to say no, was it my intuition or me just not wanting to deal with it?
Today's affirmation:
"I am in harmony with the natural rhythm of life."
Yes, I will have to repeat this one many times today.
Today's activities:
Be aware of the rhythms of nature in all its forms around you, from the rising and setting sun. ....
It's windy today, so I'm hoping that the winds will blow this very low mood I'm in far far away....
I love this book,
only 3 more days to go.....again no picture of me today, still looking pale....
Be Inspired,
~Jean

Dada Art

Dada
1916-1920
Zurich, Berlin, New Your
I must confess I do not know much about Dada artwork.
The Fun Fact I found about where the word Dada came from,
"The origin of the name Dada is in dispute. The most popular theory is that "Dada artists randomly stabbed at the French-German dictionary and hit the word "Dada," French for hobbyhorse. The other is that the word is simply nonsense or babble, reflecting the artists' attitude toward fine art."
Well there you go!!!! I like the babble myself.
It was during World War 1 that these artists came on the art world. They created provocative, contradictory, and irrational art. Their art was a way to protest against the war.
Dada artist did not seem to have a specific medium or standard to their work. More like chaos was used to create collage, paints, and sculptures. They were not interested in art for arts beauty. No, they were more interested in making the viewer think. They were more engaged in discussions of poetry readings, and performances and images that mocked the government, art world, and contemporary culture. I believe they were using art to make a political statement.
The Dada artist were the founders of what later became Surrealists artists.
Selected artists of Dada:
Jean Arp, Hugo Ball, Marcel Duchamp, George Grosz, Raoul Hausmann
Something to think about today.
Where can you find artwork that may be political or provocative,
 contradictory?
Do you consider it artwork if it is not beautiful?
Have you ever made artwork that was a statement of current affairs?
These are my two paintings that were influenced by current affairs.
