Due to a renewed love of kombi’s and having some of our own, I had to do a t-shirt design.

5 yen coins are typically given as donations at a Japanese Shinto Shrine because of the their hole, which is said to allow the wish to go through. There are several other cultural significance regarding the 5 yen coin. For example, 5 yen in Japanese is “Go-en,” which is the same as karma in Japanese (although written differently). Here the wish portrayed is the key to peace. The key I have here is one I made out of a wood block when I was 17. I made it to remind myself to work towards my goals and aspirations; it is my “Key To The Future”. Here it is the key to peace and the shrine is the door to that peace. The key is on a loop looping through the hole of the coin. Flying through the coin I also have my little folded peace crane I made not too long ago (Apr. 6, 08) out of a 6×6mm piece of paper (also portrayed in Born from Fingers and Born from the Pinky) “I shall write peace on your wings, and you shall fly all over the world” / (Sadako Sasaki – Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes) I could’ve done a computer generated key too, then it would’ve look more tidy than this one, however this image has more personal meaning for myself by using objects I made with my own hands. I like doing things by hand more, although it takes longer. I’ve played around with the settings of each layer in photoshop, and I’m having a hard time decided what looks best.

This image was taken at the Peak of fall late september 2008 at Plum Orchard Lake. The lake is nestled between Haystack and Packs mountains on Plum Orchard Creek. These mountains rise 700 to 900 feet above the lake (elevation 1,765). Located in Fayette County, West Virginia. I made an emphasis to use little light smoothing in this HDR which added to the Halo effect . / Nikon D40 18-135mm / Levels with Photoshop CS3 / HDR Photomatix Pro. /

A collab with the awesome jacqleen Karma is a cold bitch I feel… sick like I’m dying / Babe what’s the prognosis? / “I love you and want to spend my life with you” / Bullshit / We came together needing each other – symbiosis / I fell over for her like I was under hypnosis / I needed her to live / But now, like a liver with cirrhosis / I find there’s no hope in hoping / There is no cure when your lover cheats / Fuck a diagnosis / Stab the notion / I am incurable like cystic fibrosis / I swallowed her pill of deceit / And now I’m burning and can’t breathe like tuberculosis / It hurts to even move like I have acidosis / I can’t get the fucking image out of my head like neurosis / Said she loved me and I must have been in a psychosis / Now all I want to do it smash the wall with a closed fist / Oh shit / That kind of bleeding doesn’t end with thrombosis / It suffocates and eventually leads to necrosis / And thoughts of killing myself like apoptosis / Down to my lowest gradient, I’m unable to concentrate like osmosis / Memories go receeding like blood ischemic / And each one consumes me like phagocytosis / There is no other way around it, no anastomoses I guess we will split into our own new lives now like meiosis / But what goes around comes around because karma’s a cold bitch

From the “Black Butterfly: The Muse” series, installation portrait of John Lennon, charcoal on Mylar drafting film, 15×14” in vintage lighted corner shrine box, overall 20×18 x 10.” The translucent Mylar allows the backlighting to shine through the drawing. There is a small installation on the built-in shelf of the box: a traditional Indian oil lamp and incense burner, and a photo of Lennon with second wife Yoko Ono, from the cover of “The Wedding Album” (1969.) There will eventually be a real decoupage butterfly on the upper portion of the box. In the photo, I have taped a temporary one to show placement. John Winston Ono Lennon, (October 9, 1940 – December 8, 1980) was an English rock musician, singer, songwriter, artist and peace activist and one of the founding members of The Beatles. My installation piece is inspired by the John Lennon 1970 single Instant Karma! (We All Shine On) and incorporates references to the Beatles trip to India in 1968 to study Transcendental Meditation. Lennon’s resemblance to Jesus in the portrait is intentional as an acknowledgement of his March 4, 1966 statement to the press: “(The Beatles are) more popular than Jesus now; I don’t know which will go first-rock ‘n’ roll or Christianity.” / / In February 1968, the flower-power counterculture was alive and well, flourishing in a village called Rishikesh in the Himilayan foothills. There, the Maharishi Mahesh Yogi was offering a three-month course in transcendental meditation. While other swamis were offering traditional spiritual instruction in modest huts along the banks of the Ganges, the Maharishi had constructed an air-conditioned ashram — surrounded by barbed wire — for the comfort and privacy of celebrity acolytes such as actress Mia Farrow, Beach Boy Mike Love, folk singer Donovan and, of course, John, Paul, George and Ringo. Symbolism: / / In Hinduism, the lotus (water lily) primarily represents beauty and non-attachment. The lotus is rooted in the mud but floats on the water without becoming wet or muddy. This symbolizes how one should live in the world in order to gain release from rebirth: without attachment to one’s surroundings. Water has been an object of worship since a very early age among the Hindus, and plays an important role even today in Hindu religious rites. During all purification rites, water is sprinkled on the object to be purified. The butterfly is symbolic to me as Lennon’s muse, or inspiration, and in this case, is also a symbol for transformation in the afterlife. / / I used several different reference photos of John Lennon combined to create this unique image. The clouds across his forehead are taken from the cover of Lennon’s “Imagine” album. The mosaic backdrop is from photos of the John Lennon Imagine memorial mosaic at Strawberry Fields in Central Park in New York City. The Lotus reference was taken by my good friend Lindybird. I listened to John Lennon’s music, and covers of it as well, throughout the drawing process. I was frequently moved to tears by the fact that so many of the lyrics are still relevant today. / / ~ Imagine Peace! ~ Alice (For my September solo exhibition, the installation will be placed in a darkened corner of the gallery, and there will be more items related to John Lennon’s life included on a pedestal.) / / Studio music: “Imagine” John Lennon / “Instant Karma: The Amnesty International Campaign to Save Darfur” / “Across the Universe Soundtrack” Instant Karma! (We All Shine On) lyrics Songwriters: Lennon, John Winston / Instant Karma’s gonna get you, / Gonna knock you right on the head, / You better get yourself together, / Pretty soon you’re gonna be dead, / What in the world you thinking of, / Laughing in the face of love, / What on earth you tryin’ to do, / It’s up to you, yeah you. Instant Karma’s gonna get you, / Gonna look you right in the face, / Better get yourself together darlin’, / Join the human race, / How in the world you gonna see, / Laughin’ at fools like me, / Who on earth d’you think you are, / A super star, / Well, right you are. Well we all shine on, / Like the moon and the stars and the sun, / Well we all shine on, / Ev’ryone come on. Instant Karma’s gonna get you, / Gonna knock you off your feet, / Better recognize your brothers, / Ev’ryone you meet, / Why in the world are we here, / Surely not to live in pain and fear, / Why on earth are you there, / When you’re ev’rywhere, / Come and get your share. Well we all shine on, / Like the moon and the stars and the sun, / Yeah we all shine on, / Come on and on and on on on, / Yeah yeah, alright, uh huh, ah-. Well we all shine on, / Like the moon and the stars and the sun, / Yeah we all shine on, / On and on and on on and on. Well we all shine on, / Like the moon and the stars and the sun. / Well we all shine on, / Like the moon and the stars and the sun. / Well we all shine on, / Like the moon and the stars and the sun. / Yeah we all shine on, / Like the moon and the stars and the sun.
