JESSICA’S ARTIST STATEMENT

AS ABOVE, SO BELOW, AS WITHIN, SO WITHOUT, AS THE UNIVERSE, SO THE SOUL.”

– HERMES TRISMEGISTUS

During my decade-long journey as a full-time painter, I have exhibited throughout the East Coast with representation at Robert Lange Studios, Gold Gallery, Victorine Contemporary, Hubert Gallery, and most recently Walter Wickiser Gallery. My process utilizes a unique combination of acrylic paint, ink, and pigment in layers of resin on aluminum and holographic vinyl. The purpose of my work, the reason the viewer’s own reflection affects the composition of my paintings, is to show that there is no separation between humans and nature. We are one and the same, made up of the same elements and patterns of function. How we treat our bodies and each other is directly linked to how we treat the environment. By portraying the similarities in forms found high among the cosmos, to structures beneath the ocean, and our own bodies, I hope the viewer makes the connection between the microcosm and macrocosm of our universe. My artwork can be divided into five categories: clouds, cosmos, water, plants, and gemstones. Each theme corresponds to the basic elements of life: air, fire, water, and earth.

Everything in nature is connected, including human beings. All souls are connected to the oneness of the universe. The whole of creation branches out into individual souls, receiving energy feedback in the form of the vibrations we emit. Everything we do affects each other, our planet, and the universe. We can heal our environment if we first heal ourselves.

I believe this is the most important calling of our time; therefore, all of my work reflects this principle.

Saiba o que significa um prego 17 x 27.

By
Muito interessante pessoal, jamais imaginei como se media isso! abraços, Ivan Saiba o que significa um prego 17 x 27. A nomenclatura dos pregos é algo bastante desconhecido da maioria das pessoas. Isso ocorre porque há muitos padrões no mercado. Existe uma equivalência aproximada entre elas, mas as usuais estão em Polegadas Inglesas x BWG, JP x LPP e ainda o padrão métrico oficial, mm x mm. Entenda o que significam estas siglas: Polegadas Inglesas: multiplique o número correspondente por 25,4 para ter o comprimento em mm. BWG (Birmingham Wire Gauge) e JP (Jauge de Paris): são tabelas próprias que indicam o diâmetro do prego. LPP (Linhas Por Polegadas Portuguesas): multiplique o número correspondente por 2,3 para ter o comprimento em mm. No Brasil usamos mais o seguinte formato: JP x LPP Onde: JP é o diâmetro, em JDP (Jauge de Paris) LPP é o comprimento, em Linhas de Polegada Portuguesa. 1 JDP = ver tabela abaixo 1 Linha de Polegada Portuguesa: 2,30 mm Conversao de Medi

25 Alan Watts Quotes to Teach You the Transformative Power of InsighsPi

25 Alan Watts Quotes to Teach You the Transformative Power of Insighs Pin A prolific author and speaker, Alan Wilson Watts is credited with the interpretation and introduction of Eastern philosophy to the Western audience. As his mother’s students were children of missionaries to Asia, Watts began to be fascinated by Asian art, literature, and philosophy; so in time, he learned Chinese and started to explore the fundamental beliefs and practices of religions and philosophies of India and East Asia. After a rigorous research in Zen Buddhism, Watts published one of the first books on the topic –  The Way of Zen  – introducing the burgeoning youth culture to it. Due to all the wisdom it embodies, Watts even suggested that Buddhism could be presented and taught as a form of psychotherapy, and not only as a religion. Alan Watts is the author of more than 25 books on various topics such as philosophy, Eastern and Western religion, natural history, semantics, cybernetics and the

Could Asia really go to war over these?

Could Asia really go to war over these? The bickering over islands is a serious threat to the region’s peace and prosperity Sep 22nd 2012 | from the print edition THE countries of Asia do not exactly see the world in a grain of sand, but they have identified grave threats to the national interest in the tiny outcrops and shoals scattered off their coasts. The summer has seen a succession of maritime disputes involving China, Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Taiwan and the Philippines. This week there were more anti-Japanese riots in cities across China because of a dispute over a group of uninhabited islands known to the Japanese as the Senkakus and to the Chinese as the Diaoyus. Toyota and Honda closed down their factories. Amid heated rhetoric on both sides, one Chinese newspaper has helpfully suggested skipping the pointless diplomacy and moving straight to the main course by serving up Japan with an atom bomb. That, thank goodness, is grotesque hyperbole: th

Super Car of the Famous People

Jay-Z's Mercedes Maybach Exelero Price:  $8 million Featured in his music video "Lost One," this car is  truly one-of-a-kind . Made by Italian car company Stola, it was manufactured only once. It is said to be able to reach 218 mph and can go from 0-62 mph in 4.4 seconds. The Exelero, it would seem, is not one of Jay-Z's 99 problems.   Jay Leno's McLaren F1 Price:  $22 million Of all Leno's vehicles, the  McLaren F1  is certainly one of the most impressive, if only for its price. There were only 106 made. Created by Formula One race-car designer Gordon Murray, the F1 is made of lightweight premium materials such as kevlar, carbon fiber, and titanium and is supposed to be one of the best supercars ever made. Tom Brady's Bugatti Veyron Price:  $3 million Tom Brady has seven Super Bowl wins and a  garage full of impressive cars  that he might have a little more time to drive now that he's retiring from the NFL. Perhaps the most impressive is his Bugatti V

What is a sad truth about life?

By

Imagine yourself in this scenario: She is your wife. This is your car. This is your house. This is your phone. You're a multi-billionaire. You graduated from Harvard. You have a Ph.D. People love you. People hang out with you. People notice you. People take care of you. People treat you with superiority. People invite you to the best parties. Now, take away the wedding; you are single. Substitute the Bugatti with a rusty, broken car, with over 200K miles. Your home is the street. You have a flip phone. You are barely making ends meet. Many days you go without food. You cannot afford to go to college. You have no degree. Your lifestyle is now like this. What do you have? What does society see in you? Nothing. Suddenly, you go from 500 friends to 0. The people you thought cared about you are nowhere to be found. You are alone. You are struggling. And no one cares. The saddest truth about life is that

The Best Book of All Times... A la recherche de temps perdu, Marcel Proust's - In Search of Lost Time

By
Image
In Search of Lost Time by  Marcel Proust Swann's Way, the first part of A la recherche de temps perdu, Marcel Proust's seven-part cycle, was published in 1913. In it, Proust introduces the themes that run through the entire work. The narrator recalls his childhood, aided by the famous madeleine; and describes M. Swann's passion for Odette. The work is incomparable. Edmund Wilson said "[Proust] has supplied for the first time in literature an equivalent in the full scale for the new theory of modern physics." Valentin Louis Georges Eugène Marcel Proust was a French novelist, critic, and essayist who wrote the monumental novel In Search of Lost Time, originally published in French in seven volumes between 1913 and 1927. He is considered by critics and writers to be one of the most influential authors of the 20th century. Famous Quotes:  * If a little dreaming is dangerous, the cure for it is not to dream less but to dream more, to dream all the time. * T
