gardens, grasses and flowers :) most of the time an artist's work defines him or her not unless they're faking it, laughs. but in JSS's case, he is not defined by his art for he was an all around painter. portraits, landscapes, seascapes and plus complete his masterful pieces. it is very straight forward for what you see is what you get. while other artists like to run around in circles and that confuses us. maybe because of their inability to capture reality in their brushes. but don't despair for i can not even draw a flower, laughs. well one thing for sure, art is an expression of what is in the mind being let go in freedom by the hands. John Singer Sargent is one memorable painter for he had captured most of everything in our world then, ourselves, his own self, our beautiful planet earth and its residents. now that is what we call a genius in the true sense of that word :) visit his works here: his virtual art gallery, and his complete work of art... thanks Mr. JSS for showing us that art entertains, art inspires and art is our life in general captured by your magic brush :>
thistles, the flower symbolizing the crown of Jesus... Millet's garden, i wonder who is millet in JSS's life, laughs... thou shall not steal, one of the 10 commandments of God :) and the beautiful light inside these jars, maybe because fireflies are inside? kids, lilies and roses. what a beautiful sight diba, bravo! even non artistic people like me is really moved and mesmerized. how i wished that this painter should never have died. imagine those art that he could have done, sayang. but his time was up like everyone else. one must let go and so am i. i really do love and admire Mr. JSS :) hope that his talent is replicated by an artist who visits his site. now that will be quite a feat. imitation is the best form of flattery as it has been said before... and i completely agree :)
with these amaze balls of art i could end my blog as well. a dead master painter with enormous talent. his works could put a period on my online journal. if ever i don't mind. life goes on and on and on. we carry our crosses like thistles at summer time. we swim the tide of life in its ebb and flow. we move on with our lives as we thank God for all the people that we've meet who inspired us, helped us to be what we are today, not discarding those who did not for they too had taught us precious lessons in life only on the reverse, of not to imitate their examples, of not to follow on their footsteps, of not to be on their dark shadows. life is a journey after all with roads to navigate and we have plenty of it. tomorrow is another day, another road to drive... if God will allow us to be on the road again :) thanks all for your visits, it is truly appreciated, enjoy the holidays :)
