At The Shore, We Are All Children

Posted on by Marty Luster

The hurrying tumbling waves, quick-broken crests, slapping,
The strata of color’d clouds, the long bar of maroon-tint, away solitary by itself—the spread of purity it lies motionless in,
The horizon’s edge, the flying sea-crow, the fragrance of salt marsh and shore mud;
These became part of that child who went forth every day, and who now goes, and will always go forth every day.

From There Was a Child Went Forth, Walt Whitman.

Shep Abbott Coincidentally Took a Picture Of A Sign Before It Went Missing and Asked Me To Post The Picture of Said Sign For Him

Posted on by Joey Ciaramitaro

Shep happened to have a picture of a sign he “noticed” before it was removed.  He asked me to post it. So here you go.

Shep writes-

I’m attaching a photo of a sign I noticed at Grant Circle which subsequently disappeared. I wonder who might have removed it. Perhaps you’d like to publish the photo with a query as to who might have removed it. Thanks ..

Must have been some no good hippie with nothing better to do because he wasn’t at work.

Mass Produced Art in China.

SHENZHEN, China – Zhang Libing has painted more van Goghs than van Gogh ever did.

At 26, Mr. Zhang estimates that he has painted up to 20,000 copies of van Gogh’s works in a paint-spattered third-floor garret here where freshly washed socks and freshly painted canvases dry side-by-side on the balcony.
