Prehistoric love forever














I like your fruits, Pine
and your attraction to the Blue Jays
or is the other way around?



Please don't be long...break it open...give us release..put this crisis to sleeeeeep.

Charley Harper

I love this artist and the way he described his art: "minimal realism".





"When I look at a wildlife or nature subject, I don’t see the feathers in the wings, I just count the wings. I see exciting shapes, color combinations, patterns, textures, fascinating behavior and endless possibilities for making interesting pictures. I regard the picture as an ecosystem in which all the elements are interrelated, interdependent, perfectly balanced, without trimming or unutilized parts; and herein lies the lure of painting; in a world of chaos, the picture is one small rectangle in which the artist can create an ordered universe." -Charley Harper
