Coeur d'Alene, Idaho - November 21, 2020 - "Under Pressure" (#2/12) - Did you know that Earth has its own pressure relief valve? Actually, there are 600 of them on land and 3 times as many under the ocean and NOT one of them is a reset button! "Damn you, 2020! DAMN YOU!!" (shakes fist at nothing toward the cold, grey, uncaring, winter sky). What's even more interesting is that at any given moment, 10 to 20 volcanoes are erupting! "Gees, Earth, why so stressed?" (said without a shred of biting sarcasm). Turns out, when the earth's mantle is melted by the core, the molten rock (or magma) rises to the surface as lava to reestablish that much needed equilibrium. Ha! This is oddly similar to what I need to do from time to time. After finding a quiet, private place, I whip out my phone and go to my 'tried and true' YouTube lineup of 8 inspiring videos. I've seen them hundreds of times and yet they always melt my freeze dried heart and remind me of two things: relationships matter most and that life is beautiful. 💖💖💖

Coeur d'Alene, Idaho - November 15, 2020 - Hi everyone. Good morning or afternoon. My recent composition, 'Your Choice,' may look like the back of a cereal box but it took me over a month and more than 60 sessions to complete because I'm pretty meticulous on the details. Here are some close-ups and sketch work to peruse and enjoy. Thank you (as always) for your interest and support!💖💖💖

TRUNKS ART starts a new NATURE SERIES with "Your Choice!"
Coeur d'Alene, Idaho - November 7, 2020 - "Your Choice" (#1/12) - Isn't it amazing? I mean, just think about it for a second. Sun rays that land on one leaf type makes plums, another produces oranges, still another creates apples. See? Incredible. I know I'm gushing about the eighth grade science lesson of photosynthesis, but c'mon; ANY process that uses good ol' sunlight to turn carbon dioxide and water into sugar and oxygen is pretty awesome to know about at any age, right? Hmmm. If you stop and think about it, it's a lot like what we see in society. We all live under the same sun yet some people choose to spew negativity while others promote acceptance, support, humor, wisdom and love. Remember, it's your choice. 💖💖💖
