I’ve seen many winters come around / But never before have you drawn upon my mind / In pencil lines / That cling to forms of man / And move through motions / And movement / Stretching / In joyful wonder. I’m finding such meaning / In each thread and vein of time; / A moment, not kept, but / Released / And / A conviction of sight / Beyond the border of my mind. You / Have touched the core of my soul / And from it / Spinning / Thrown expression across the skies / In ever changing picture / And with it / Peace / In knowing / You.

Camouflage / Andrew Barton ‘Banjo’ Paterson —-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—-—- BESIDE the bare and beaten track of travelling flocks and herds / The woodpecker went tapping on, the postman of the birds, / “I’ve got a letter here,” he said, “that no one’s understood, / Addressed as follows: ‘To the bird that’s like a piece of wood.’ / “The soldier bird got very cross—it wasn’t meant for her; / The spur-wing plover had a try to stab me with a spur: / The jackass laughed, and said the thing was written for a lark. / I think I’ll chuck this postman job and take to stripping bark.” Then all the birds for miles around came in to lend a hand; / They perched upon a broken limb as thick as they could stand, / And just as old man eaglehawk prepared to have his say / A portion of the broken limb got up and flew away. Then, casting grammar to the winds, the postman said, “That’s him! / The boo-book owl—he squats himself along a broken limb, / And pokes his beak up like a stick; there’s not a bird, I vow, / Can tell you which is boo-book owl and which is broken bough. “And that’s the thing he calls his nest—that jerry-built affair— / A bunch of sticks across a fork; I’ll leave his letter there. / A cuckoo wouldn’t use his nest, but what’s the odds to him— / A bird that tries to imitate a piece of leaning limb!” Note from G.M. / A B. actualy is in error about the frogmouth being the boo book owl. Frogmouths are not owls, they use their beak to catch prey, not their claws. /

Soo, for those of you who don’t have her on your list, a wonderful artist I’ve been watching named Janis Zroback has recently been doing a tutorial on an ancient style of painting known as Chinese Brush Painting, which I have been following along with now. Just today I but my brushes and ink and such, and had at it. And, mostly for her sake of requesting seeing some results for those participating, I decided to post below some of the thing’s I’ve managed to do so far. They’re not great, but i figure its a good start! Let me know what you think, if you want, and feel free to check out the tutorial thus far on her homepage first in the journals, then continued in her writing. Thanks fo the great tips and information so far, Janis. Keep up the great work!! Chris /

Thank you for the feature in the Art Up Close group. This is one of my favorite painted with the black background for a Bible. The Vine is our Lord and the branches with grapes are believers abiding in the Lord. A Mystical painting of a truth explained. (Parables) The Vine and Branches can be used for a sympathy card, or invitation card or any type you choose…I thought I would put that info because it was rejected by a group at the same time I got the feature. The Religious images that I have painted can be viewed on Pbase.com also. Jeffee Gourley Art and Photography Ancient Symbolism and Windows of Truth Gallery. Prints can be made available

Groups Reaching Out A Christian Mission and Art Close Up Features Oil on Canvas Vine and Branches at the same time. The Vine and Branches is a mystical image representing Christ and his followers, – View Pbase.com Jeffee Gourley Art and Photography for some of my work. Vine – Symbol of Christ who said, “I am the true vine (Jn 15:1). Its flowering or fruitful branches represent the faithful of the Church of God. because Jesus went on, “and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away; and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.” From the day Christ instituted the sacred mystery we perform it in His memory. I would like to see my work on and in Bibles, and have worked toward a gallery / museum. In Christian art, we may speak of the Holy Eucharist, or the Holy Communion, but rarely if ever do we hear of the Blessed Eucharist or the Blessed Communion. The Lord’s Supper, in works pertaining to Christian art, is said to be celebrated, and never mearly served, observed, or administered, as is said by those who do not accept the doctrine of the Real Presence.
