The image is a visual response to an engaging post:
The Animated GIF: The Antithesis of Mindfulness
Personally, I love rich visual imagery … It’s the way I think and communicate.
For me, the best Art has ambiguity. I like having the time and silence to appreciate and question.
But now, EVERYDAY feels like an animated gif. The average person is exposed to 3,500 advertising messages a day. We devour images, resources and ideas.
And along the way, maybe we’re debasing and dehumanizing ourselves?
Chalk Art Lane
My wife and a detail of our large drawing. We are the people in your neighbourhood (haha).
Yea, we like to draw … we probably drive all our neighbours crazy.
Shapes & Doodles
Jade & I collaborate with chalk art at the farmer’s market kid zone.
I’ll draw the shapes, Jade’ll draw the details (faces in shapes, shoes, arms, etc.)
Jade’s Drawing: Winging It !
At this party, everyone is colourful and flying.
Jade drawing with her soother … It helps her get in “the zone.” (haha)
Picking Blackberries
Jade and I LOVE picking (and of course eating) berries.
Official Blackberry Tester … To ensure “quality control”, Jade always tests the berries for me.
Tiger Swallowtail Butterfly Doodle
I was inspired by a great butterfly and caterpillar library book the other day.
Summer Butterfly
There’s been lots of butterfly sightings this summer
Wonderland Birthday
Our family had an “Alice And Wonderland” theme for Jades’ birthday. My wife had a blast creating the amazing decorations !!!
Mad Hatter Tea Party … My wife made the hats … and I learned to make balloon hats.
Jade stuck the butterflies on the walls for the party.
My wife made cupcakes with cheshire grins.
Colourful rainbow cupcakes. Jade had such a fun time!
Butterfly Buddies
At a friend’s birthday party …
I drew Jade’s face and a 7 year old drew mine (Jade added my dots).
Yes, we know how to party!
