The beauty of the chinese grafitti took my eye here along with the lush tones of green. / If only all grafitti could be this pretty.
Someday… on a clear, still, moonlit night; / To the beach, is where we’ll go. / With a blanket and hot chocolate already packed; / Walk, hand in hand, on soft, warm sand; / Down to the water’s edge, where we’ll dance awhile; / Oh, to hold you close and whisper in your ear; / Those three words you’ve longed to hear. / Brush aside the hair which hides your face; / See a smile grow and laughter kiss your lips; / Then sit with you ‘til dawn‘s early light; / Your hand in my left, hot chocolate in my right. / Precious moments, dreams and memories; / Someday… with you, I want to share.

Chinese Brush Painting-The Inn of Happiness.. Ink and Watercolour on Rice Paper. “The Inn of Happiness” [my title] is the very first Chinese style painting I ever did, and for practice I based it on a very ancient Chinese landscape painting… / I decided I loved this style of painting and went on to compose my own imaginary scenes with a distinctive oriental flavour. / After doing just a few pieces, I had to give it up in order to concentrate on my main body of work. / This year when I found that RedBubble was the perfect arena for me to indulge in any style of painting my heart desired, I happily returned to it…. I am including “The Inn of Happiness” here as an example of adding colour to an ink painting, in illustration of the articles I have written on the subject so far…Janis Why question the fate of the dew? / The morning sun burns dew, and drowns in clouds. The holy mountain is not a palace / But an inn. / Once you, innkeeper, / Drive out desire, ignorance, hate, / What remains? Enlightenment? Affliction? Dew is your model: nothing at all. Han Shan /

Taken in Tunga/Zuga, a remote village in Nigeria. Mary is aged 12 years old and her mission is to care for her younger brother. Each day Mum and Dad work in the small field from sunrise to sunset. there is no school here and the nearest one is 4 miles away. Children are so precious and I cannot help but think of the great benefits our children have here in England and other developed countries.

mixed media on wood layers and layers and layers of little pieces of collected imagery, some of previous artwork such as hand made ornaments created from paper and found objects or carved from driftwood, then scanned in and transfered. to art work. copper leaf borders…...it is a happening…...happening as it happens….as I happen upon another little piece or snippet of LIFE original work still available.
/ “Looking For Cornelius And Not Finding Him” is part of the Winter Collection...more than meets the eye… / In my painting and accompanying writing, “Looking for Cornelius”, there are three significant levels of interpretation..on one level it’s a metaphor for the challenges we face in life and how we struggle to overcome them…secondly it is a tribute to the genre of Chinese poetry, and thirdly it is literally looking for a way to the great Canadian artist Krieghoff, and not having made it to end of the journey…but along the way happiness is found, and the necessity for the journey is now gone…Janis Watercolour on Canvas… In looking for Cornelius, I climbed many mountains, wore out my shoes, tore my arms in pain, wept in misery…he was not there…then I stopped to rest beneath the trees…the quiet beauty of winter surrounded me…my cares slipped away ...

/ “Lemon Curd and Blueberry Tart” is part of the “Delicious” collection..Watercolour on Arches Not Paper… Featured in Light in the Darkness…. This new series is definitely a reflection of my particular experience… it is at once a commentary on the richness of our culture and at the same time a reflection of my daily life…food is essential to life…suffice it to say we can’t exist with out it ... Painting food has a long history and according to Kenneth Bendiner in the comprehensive “Food in Painting”, is a separate classification of Art…He “underlines the central importance of 16th century innovations in food subjects and the great influence of 17th century Dutch art in the development of food imagery”. / He explains, with examples of paintings by the likes of Rembrandt, Chardin, Manet, Warhol and many others, how “food images can be purely symbolic, surrealist, and an element in allegories…he also shows the optimistic, human centered Renaissance spirit of food painting, and the way abundance, success and fulfillment pervade this art”. “But the illusion fails, and time returns us / to noisy cities where the blue / is seen in patches, up between the roofs. / The rain exhausts the earth then; / winter’s tedium weighs the houses down, / the light turns miserly—the soul bitter. / Till one day through a half-shut gate / in a courtyard, there among the trees, / we can see the yellow of the lemons; / and the chill in the heart / melts, and deep in us / the golden horns of sunlight / pelt their songs”. excerpt…Eugenio Montale / / (Click image to link)
In his sumptuous exploration of food images (Food in Painting), Kenneth Bendiner states, that ” food for the art historian can be the one area where conscious rules and dignified ideas need not hold sway - the real urges and concerns of a painter or his society can rise to the surface. There’s a certain freedom in the margins of art - where experiments and indulgence can operate—in other words more can be learned about someone from his backyard, than from the street façade of his house.” The latest painting from the series” Delicious” is “Scone with Berries and Cream. The Berries are a type of black berry, available all year round here… Watercolour on Arches Paper…Featured in Happy Haven… I grew up in a society where tea time was sacrosanct… dashing into the house after school, at four o’clock in the afternoon straight to the table which tea was laid, was an everyday thing… the weather was hot and the tea was refreshing… after several cups, one felt at peace with the world. Clotted Cream came from England in jars or tins but my mother also whipped up a wonderful cream from the top of the milk that came straight to our home from a neighboring farm every day…dinner was much later on in the evening ... You and I are great souls. / And we come together for a time. / We meet over a cup of tea here on earth. Shall we leave our shell and join with each other? / Shall we put down our shield and armor? / What will become of us if we do? / What horrible fate awaits us if we are defenseless? Tea is a time for love and tenderness without fear. / It is a time for sharing and learning and growing. / Come now, leave the battle gear behind. / Brave with me and let’s have tea. E.Grey Watercolour on Arches Paper.. One day through a half-shut gate / in a courtyard, there among the trees, / we can see the yellow of the lemons; / and the chill in the heart / melts, and deep in us / the golden horns of sunlight / pelt their songs* The strawberry is rough like a slave’s arduous life / Vermillion, green, and fuzzy like an inscripted pathway / It tastes like the first candy bar in a child’s life / It looks like a cold soda on a hot summer day / Sounds like the Sirens decepting voice. (Click images to link) Blueberries as big as the end of your thumb, / Real sky-blue, and heavy, and ready to drum / In the cavernous pail of the first one to come! / And all ripe together, not some of them green / And some of them ripe! You ought to have seen ...
The title of this painting is a play on words….see the poem on the left below by May Swenson….and like Robert Frost below, I ask the same question of myself very often and the answer is always a loud and resounding…no…no matter what life throws at me, it still worth it. Watercolour on Clayboard…in the Abstract Series… / 173 Views A voice said, / Look me in the stars / And tell me truly, men of earth, / If all the soul-and-body scars / Were not too much to pay for birth. Robert Frost..A Question..
Inspired by artist Linaji´s ” Cardamom and Coffee” poem. / Thank you so much, Lina; your art is so encouraging and inspiring. “Cardamom and Coffee” I will know him by his breath / cardamom and coffee / a wisp of drizzled raspberry around his lips / same color His eyes deep pools of mud / that lotus seek to penetrate / Power that / rich soil / creation here for my longing His laughter / the sound of my mother’s heart / beating in my mothers womb / on that ride of conception His skin / translucent / amber / exposing my joy / entertaining my will / I applaud! It is beauty that I’ve found here / nestled / wrestled / like a piece of sand / coated with the molecules of / infinity / pearl orbed and adorned I am transformed once again And by the divine patterns he creates’ / for our pleasure / we dance the Terra Cotta two-step / and sing subterranean songs No whisper is needed nor promises made, Because I will know him by his breath Cardamom and Coffee / A wisp of drizzled raspberry around his lips / Same color Linaji 2008
PLEASE READ THIS. TAKEN IN NATURAL LIGHT I am an Irish born missionary and founder of Philadelphia Mission a British Charity. My passion in life is to reach as many children living in extreme poverty with practical tools and help to live healthy and productive like. My inspiration and motivation is from God adn his great love for the poor and outcast. This is a NARI-KOV-AVARS Gypsy girl. I took this Photograph while ministering in a Gypsy camp just outside Chennai in Tamil Nadu State. India. She was following me and the team as we went through the settlement. I was battling 40c heat and drinking bottled water a lot. One of the gypsy pastors shouted at her to be quiet, which really upset me. I asked him why he was shouting at her and what she had said. He told me she was begging and wanted water, adn he told her off. I knelt down and looked at her deeply in her eyes, and ask my interpreter to tell her, i would like to give her a bottle of water. I had several in by backpack. AS I handed her the water, Pastor Alwin took this Photograph with my camera, as I was talking with her. he was right behind me. So the expression on her face is what I would have seen. There is no clean water in the gypsy camp, and water is very scarce now that its dry summer. What really touched my heart was that she went and called her older sister and shared the water with her. These gypsies are treated adn called outcasts, because they are under Hindu Religion classed as such. They are beaten cheated and often chased from towns and villages. No one in this campo went to school, as they had no money for school fees. there is no medical care and no toilets anywhere in the camp. Neglected by locals and government alike. We and THE INDIA NEW LIFE GYPSY MISSION CHURCH are the only ones now helping the 4000000 NARI-KOV-ARARS gypsies. There are a total of 40.000000 gypsies in India, and almost all get help, except the NARI-KOV-AVARS tribe. We need your Prayers and Help.

PLEASE READ THIS. Taken in a Gypsy settlement close to Kallakurachi. India. Some of you will know me through my Writings and photographs of Extreme poor in Remote and Rural villages in Africa, and correspondence here on RB. God called me in 1994 to go and share his Message with the poor, disadvantaged and outcast, I have with great passion and little Financial support being doing what he has commissioned me to do. [My Passion in life is to reach as many poor and disadvantaged in Remote and rural villages with the Gospel of Jesus, and provide practical help and care]. I have with the help, Prayers and support of precious people worldwide been able to not only share Gods message of salvation, but provide Tools, Clothing, Bibles, Some School fees, Seeds, Medicines and other needful things to empower them to live better lives. Recently here on RB in the past two years, God has blessed me with many new precious friends. I thank God for you all. In Uganda during 2001-2003, God used me to expose Children being sold by extremely desperate and poor families, to those who had money and who they thought would give their child a better life. I detest this, yet in most cases, not all, the parents or carers could no longer provide for the child. With their government unable, or unwilling to help, they look to those outside their community and tribe for an answer. In India where I and the Philadelphia Charity are now working with NARI-KOR-AVARS gypsy tribe, I came across several cases of children for sale. I personally have been offered children. One for sale and one to take home to Britain and care for her. The reason why I am sharing this with you is that the above Photograph is of one such child. Some of you will experience feelings of Unbelief that this happens, and others strong emotions of anger and disgust. I am asking you to have a thought for the Mother of this child and pray for her. In extreme poverty, Outcast from Society and treated lower than a dog, almost everywhere she goes. She has tried her very best to provide food and shelter. She is sick in body and wept genuine tears of sorrow, as she asked me buy her child for for 5000 Rupees = $100. Please help us to help these precious parents and carers with tools, seeds, Clothing, income, practical help, so tey never be in the position of giving away or selling their child as a last resort to saving that child and giving it a better future. This is happening not just in India or Africa, but in other countries also. Some sell their children purely for selfish gains. But I have not yet met any. those I met are heartbroken and doing something that must be unthinkable to any of us . 100% of all money raised from sale of any of my art, or donations made via our charity website goes to help extreme poor in Africa and India.

Calligraphy (from Greek κάλλος kallos “beauty” + γραφή graphẽ “writing”) is a type of visual art. It is often called the art of writing (Mediavilla 1996: 17). A contemporary definition of calligraphic practice is “the art of giving form to signs in an expressive, harmonious and skillful manner” (Mediavilla 1996: 18). The story of writing is one of aesthetic evolution framed within the technical skills, transmission speed(s) and materials limitations of a person, time and place (Diringer 1968: 441). A style of writing is described as a script, hand or alphabet (Fraser & Kwiatkowski 2006; Johnston 1909: Plate 6). Nikon D50 / Nikkor 70-300 VR
