The beach has been heavenly in Florida for the past few weeks.  The weather has been perfect…slightly cool and sunny.  I’ve spent many hours walking up and down Caspersen in Venice, FL.  It is always intriguing how certain things wash up in clusters that do not wash up at other times at all.  Somedays it is starfish.  Others it might be crab bits.  Or these beautiful iridescent fan clams that form hearts when open.

Scientifically they are called Pinnidae and are a taxonomic family of large saltwater clams sometimes known as pen shells. They are marine bivalve molluscs in the order Pterioida.

I just think they are “love”ly…

Screen print from etched acrylic and ink.

Circa 1992

This piece is definitely a one off by me.  It started as an etching on a hard acrylic sheet that was then inked and pressed on a screen press.  I remember the acrylic being very difficult to scratch into.  I still have the block and the original sketch to this piece.  A rare find…

Love Has No Fear

There is no fear in love. Perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment.  Love has to do with acceptance and protection.  This is not something I understood growing up…..I had to learn what healthy love meant. Once I did…..my whole world just opened up.

This piece of art started as an acrylic abstract on Yupo.  Many months later I saw a cliff in the painting and the idea of a tree came to me which then evolved into a symbol for true love.  It is a mixed media piece that combines three elements (background, tree and heart) created separately and then beautifully married on the computer.  The results are very satisfying to me.

Where Does Love Come From?

Where does love originate?  The heart or the brain?  Or is it something that we attract from outside of ourselves?  Science tells us that all emotions including love originates in the brain. We feel the passions of love because our brains contain specific neurochemicals and peptides that create those loving feelings in us. There is never a conflict between the heart and the brain but rather between different parts of the brain, parts that specialize in rational thought, such as long-term planning, and parts that give our lives emotional energy.  Lends support to the old term “head over heels”. 😉
