The title has two meanings. Holyrood palace is beautiful, but like any place with history, it has it’s darker moments. Likewise the sky was picturesque, but the night would end with 70 mph gale force winds whipping through the streets of Edinburgh. Edinburgh, Scotland / December 31, 2006

White-Lipped (or D’Alberts) Pythons are definitely NOT known for their placid nature. Although this one (called Robbie) would have you think he wouldn’t hurt a fly!
WE ARE ARE WE NOT JUST DECEIVING OURSELVES…..... “the art of deception” is the act of convincing another to believe information that is not true…........ this Large sculpture is made entirely of Plastic…............then painted with acrylics.. inspired by the song..”The Great Deception” Lyrics by Van Morrison Did you ever hear about the great deception / Well the plastic revolutionaries take the money and run / Have you ever been down to love city / Where they rip you off with a smile / And it don’t take a gun Don’t it hurt so bad in love city / Don’t it make you not want to bother at all / And don’t they look so self righteous / When they pin you up against the wall Did you ever, ever see the people / With the tear drops in their eyes / I just can’t stand it, stand it no how / Living in this world of lies Did you ever hear about the rock and roll singers / Got three or four Cadillacs / Saying power to the people, dance to the music / Wants you to pat him on the back Have you ever heard about the great Rembrandt / Have you ever heard about how he could paint / And he didn’t have enough money for his brushes / And they thought it was rather quaint But you know it’s no use repeating / And you know it’s no use to think about it / ‘Cause when you stop to think about it / You don’t need it Have you ever heard about the great Hollywood motion picture actor / Who knew more than they did / And the newspapers didn’t cover the story / Just decided to keep it hid. Somebody started saying it was an inside job / Whatever happened to him? / Last time they saw him down on the Bow’ry / With his lip hanging off an old rusty bottle of gin Have you ever heard about the so-called hippies / Down on the far side of the tracks / They take the eyeballs straight out of your head / Say son, kid, do you want your eyeballs back Did you ever see the people / With the tear drops in their eyes / Just can’t stand it no how / Living in this world of lies featured in the group 1 on 1: The Fine Art of Portraiture ...................................

This Oil Painting 16 X 20 stretched canvas is of the predawn fog at Deception Pass Bridge, Washington. Deception Pass, located at the northern end of Puget Sound, is a treacherous, narrow channel with turbulent waters, rapid tidal action, and rocky outcrops. It separates the high bluffs of Whidbey Island from those of Fidalgo Island. A rocky islet, Pass Island, rises in the mouth of the pass and divides it into two channels. Deception Pass Bridge connects Whidbey Island to Pass Island. / I lived on Whidbey Island for 3 years in the mid 60’s. / Created in my Grants Pass, Oregon Studio FEATURED IN / United States / Pacific NorthwestGroup / Welcome to Washington (the State) / Mornings & Evenings—Sunbeams & Storms / Impressionist Art / Fantastic Primitive Art
From afar you beckoned to me / Like a cool fertile oasis in the scorching desert, / how I longed to taste your liquid coolness on my tongue…

One of those mornings when a photographers’ dream seems to fulfill itself. A few of you sure will “see” right through the title on this image. One of my alltime favorite places to photograph, the Whaleheadhunt Club in Currituck, NC. Best viewed in Large format.
