Thanks for the painting! Is it yours Rocco!? Are you inspired by Van Gogh's Starry Night by chance? Don't get me wrong, your paintings completely different but yet the mood hits me the same way, love the way it makes me feel...

 

[Rocco]

Thank you. Perhaps somewhat inspired by Van Gogh. I like using stars to add depth.

 

[NicholRuth]

I guess that's the ingredient then; depth... love it.

 

[Rocco]

Thank you. You words make me feel better today. Here are a few other starshine pics

Tormented artist? Just teasing... Your work is brilliant! I always felt like I was from outer space; I suspect everyone here can relate lol! I tend to be a bit of a nerd as well, enjoying movies like Contact, Aliens and stuff like that. Very curious about what else is out there. You use colors that also remind me of the Northern Lights. If you've never heard of them try a google search, I bet you'd find them inspiring!? I won't even try and pick a favorite, love em all! I must say I enjoy the heavy brush work in several though. Neat way to draw attention to the planets.

'lo!

We need more beekeeping, here in England bees are very low for various reasons, one being pesticides apparently. Wherever you might be you're doing something worth doing.

Anyway, find yourself a post to lean on and join in with the conversations we have.

And this video of Homer is exactly why the bees fly away lol! To many red necks shoving their fists in for a greedy nosh hehe... Especially in my parts. I think what it boils down to is that people always take more then they need of everything in life. When it comes to farming or keeping animals, the relationships should appear symbiotic, but they don't. When we control and keep, there's no balance, reward or harmony. Bees are no different; abuse them and they leave. I'd leave to based on what I see.

Just what you wanted, a bee lecture lol! Please forgive me, I love and respect them and what they bring to my life.

I see your list of funky stuff there; you sound like a good friend I used to hang with. I was always very relaxed around him, his articulations were kind of like a bark with a tick and of course he was Aspies as well and of course depressed with anxiety. He was also a great electrician and tradesman

Choose to have a great day, big hug!
