Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

...last night came wandering into the evening of my garden 2 S8 travellers weary for wine & revelry, art and poetry Judih(dot) and White Bird Sings ( ask her how she got the name - fascinating story )...filled theirs eyes and I my my empty mind with thoughts of now and then atop a hill where stood our common school..stories of highs and ill reputed teachers...red wine and 1/2 a beer...leaving behind unannounced to me a surprise of Life Flux...which I already treasure...was an eve I'll not soon forget... the pond gurgles on...

good!!!

Excellent~! Did you get a kiss on the cheek? I blew one your way.

Janette & maple walnut ice cream


Janette and I
after some amazing ice cream on St.Clair St., Toronto


Janette and Kurt at his house


A shot Janette took of me and Kurt


i was too busy entering into Kurt's paintings to photograph them. The white on white series is so lush in its rich carved and textured glory. (See the paintings here on Studio

His portrait series is also so sensational. Up close is the way to view the fantastic interaction of face and artstyle.

And as always, the best family radiates charm when you visit Kurt.
Right, Janette?

(p.s. just got my net connection back. So it's been jet lagged body and no net cut off, but all's well)

thx, judih! some great, friendly pix of the crew. always interesting to place the face with the names.

sounds like a wonderful visit and one that many of us, i'm sure, would've enjoyed having.

maple icecream!!! mmm... never tried one, but I can imagine it!!!
nice to meet your photo White Bird Sings!!!! and nice to see Judih and artguy again!!
it seems you can be hours only looking at artguy guy walls and be entretained/amazed!!! the stripes wall is a wall paper, a wall paper made by you or is painted directly in the wall? also beautiful!!!

(my internet connection is already again at home since...mmm...more or less two months...I guess is a record...wow!!!)

I have to smile every time I see your smiling face.

You have such a beautiful smile

awesome!....wish I coulda been there.........

Judih, Janette, and Kurt!

So wonderful to see you all together! What beautiful smiles on the faces of such beautiful souls!

You're all so darn beautiful! Geezzzz!

Wish I could have been there!

Thanks so much for sharing the photos, Judih!

yeah, awesome is the word.
forgot to mention the wonderful meditation series. Seeing them so close and in sequence is like a power trip through soul flight.

could we not arrange a little get-together in toronto? (wouldn't it be swell?)
the weather was so superb i still can't believe it. Back home, the heat is oppressive and i can barely walk outside after 8 a.m. or before 6:00 p.m.
Guess i was just lucky. When i was there those last days in July, the fresh warmth was conducive to walk, walking around the city. And did i mention hip hop festival, jazz festival, asian festival and street theatre? (all for free)

j

I sure do need a passport..........

So are we seeing artguy, whitebird sings, and judih in these lovely photos?
If only one could really just step inside a picture. I'd of joined you for sure!
Truly enjoyed these visuals...
