illusions and delusions.



today was my art class. i was in a siminar with truly great artists. i was seriously out of my league in that class. these people were so genuine. it was great. their spontaneous song singing, in unison, might i add. so here is my (almost finished) project from today. i was inspired by a buddha quote.

the quote was: THREE THINGS CANNOT BE LONG HIDDEN: THE SUN, THE MOON, AND THE TRUTH.

at the top you can kinda see the moon/sun. then at the bottom, the chinese word you see is TRUTH. on the top corners are the words HUMANITY and COMPASSION. different types of glass were used, along with mirrors. i had to cut them into bits and pieces. (although i did help from the WONDERFUL artist who taught the class.) i still have to let it dry, then grout it. but all in all, its not so shabby!!

i was inevitably reminded of a golden girls episode. (because, when am i not?) i snuck in my own smirk, thanks to mah golden girls.

oh and omg. on the way to bamberg, i saw this trailor park, that had an "oasis island" in the front, facing the highway. ....just. wow. what can i say to that?
