The Art Collectors, from; deb Clarke

Posted on by capeannpainter
from; deb Clarke
Watched this documentary on PBS last night and decided that if they could fit over 4000 pieces of original art in their New York City apartment, I have plenty of room in mine for my extensive collection.  I have never met collectors like the Vogels.  The Vogels really got to know the artists, the artists’ process, and really supported the artists at critical times in their career. 
There are a few collectors of my work that have more than one of my works, but there are no collectors as intimately familiar with my work as the Vogels.  My paintings have sold one at a time, with very few repeats.  Why?  because most of my sales have been commissioned for the space over the couch, the sideboard, the bed.  The biggest impact this video had on me is that it gave me great courage to continue and helped me to see some of my ‘hidden work’ as valid.  So, I won’t throw it out.  I will look at my art hiccups, see the value and remember that there is more to painting and making art than making pretty pictures.

Awakening The Happiness Within You with Orgyen Chowang Rinpoche
We often think that if we are lucky we will get to be happy, but happiness is who we are.  We can spend our entire lives searching for happiness externally, but true happiness can only be found within. If we simply remove the barriers between us and our true nature, our inner happiness comes out. When we know our minds are fundamentally comfortable, innately happy, then wherever we go, whatever we do, happiness is always with us. In this talk, Buddhist meditation master Orgyen Chowang Rinpoche will introduce us to our natural state of happiness and explain methods for expanding our experience of it and extending it to others.

Beginners welcome. No previous experience with meditation or Buddhist practice is necessary.  Suggested Donation $20.  Call 978-282-1191 x 1 for info and to pre-register.

Orgyen Chowang Rinpoche

 

Bio of Orgyen Chowang Rinpoche:

He studied for ten years at Lharang Gar in Serta, eastern Tibet, with his teacher, the great Jigmed Phuntsok Rinpoche, who is widely acknowledged as one of the greatest Dzogchen masters of the 20th century. Orgyen Chowang Rinpoche lives in the San Francisco Bay Area and is the founder and spiritual director of Atiamrita (atiamrita.org), an organization dedicated to promoting happiness, inner peace, and enlightenment. He is currently writing his first book as well as traveling throughout North America speaking on meditation and spirituality.

“AHHT” It’s what I Do! by deb Clarke

Posted on by capeannpainter
From deb Clarke;
Most of my work these past few weeks has been focused on the view in Cripple Cove.  Today and yesterday I stretched and triple primed this 38×42″ canvas.  I planned to draw on the gessoed surface with a sharpie marker, but I’m having a hard time making that first irreversible mark.  My plan was to base a painting on favorite drawings of looking down on Capt Joe’s docks .  pics of my recent drawings, the ‘white angst’, and source material follow.
