"Creativity is allowing oneself to make mistakes. Art is knowing which ones to keep. "

"Dreams help you connect your present, daily consciousness and the inner teachings, where the highest truths can be gleaned."
Harold Klemp
I would like to thank all of my favorite artists for the inspirations they have given me. BIOThanks for stopping by my macrocosm. I live and breath any form of artistic expression. I'm willing to try any media. I started with pencils at an early age. I think I may have been born with a pencil in my hand...my poor mother!!!
I then found out about pastels and oil paints. Then moved on to watercolors. I have a bachelors of fine arts in illustration. All my illustrations in college where done in watercolors. Computers weren't as cool as they are today. I think we had photoshop 3...harder work back then. Anyway I then worked for many years as a graphic designer and then art director. It was fun for awhile. Now I'm onto photography for a living. At night I rush home and paint or create in photoshop or both...but I never forget my spiritual life or family or love. Those are very important factors in life. Finding love in this world is a challenge. Hold onto it and never let it go. If we use love in everything we do...in our art or with another person...then the only outcome can be a positive one...

I simply -cannot- believe there are no comments for this yet! This is an outSTANDING image. Your wording set the tone perfectly. A great many concepts hidden away within a deceptively simple photo.. and -what- a photo it is! applauding

Oh my gosh, Erik - this is stunning! I'm totally mesmerized......lost in thoughts of what it might be like to have this shell instead of just a psychic one. Lovely work.

Even a little tear in his eye. Then again, its really convenient to pop inside to watch a little TV, or get a cold beer.

I love this picture, thank you for sharing it with us, all I can say is that sometimes even our own created worlds can be cruel....sometimes our minds and hearts still ache, sometimes shutting the world out and just hiding within ourselves....isn't good enough.....sometimes we all feel like sh*t, and not even the warmth of our homes can overcome that....Again, thank you for posting this image...
