I consider Michael Parkes to be the greatest living American artist.  I have the privilege of attending his annual exhibition at the Borsini-Burr Gallery near Half-Moon Bay, CA this coming week-end!  Michaels’ 69th birthday will be celebrated as part of this show.  You can learn more about the fantastic art of Michael Parkes on his official website  http://www.theworldofmichaelparkes.com/cm/Home.html

Here is a short video of a similar show Michael presented at this gallery in 2012.  Enjoy.

GREEK ODYSSEY

Republished by Blog Post Promoter

With the Olympic Games nearly upon us, it is an appropriate time to brush up on our Greek history lessons.  Ancient Greece is the origin point of much of the language, culture, mythos and logic of modern Western culture.  Here is a very insightful and entertaining series of videos that tour the Greek Islands with excellent instructional presentation, cinematography and narration.  Visit Greece from the comfort of your computer.  The enchanting hostess for the series is Joanna Lumley.  You will understand a lot more about why we think, speak and act the way we do today as an extension of ourselves beginning 3,000 years ago.  Originally,  “westerners” meant “West of China and India”, which were the source point of really sophisticated civilization.  By comparison people living in “the West” were barbarians.  The same may be said today.

VOODOO CHILD

Rock n’ Roll the way it’s supposed to be played!

“I stand up next to a mountain . . .
And I chop it down with the edge of my hand
Well, I stand up next to a mountain
I chop it down with the edge of my hand
Well, I pick up all the pieces and make an island
Might even raise a little sand

‘Cause I’m a voodoo child
Voodoo child

I didn’t mean to take up all your sweet time
I’ll give it right back one of these days
I didn’t mean to take up all your sweet time
I’ll give it right back one of these days

If I’ll see you no more in this world
I’ll meet ya on the next one
Don’t be late
Don’t be late

Well, I’m a voodoo child
Lord knows I’m a voodoo child, baby
Voodoo Child, Voodoo child, Voodoo child”
