Not mine, but a beautiful image; I was raised on mythology, discovery and visions. Go to @jpdenyer on Instagram and view my "Stories, and you will see the gallery I brought to you. Thank you.

Today's Reveal, Tommrow's Path, the Past Be Damned

Hi.  While I don't know who you are, I want to be friendly, welcoming and have you return time and time again. Thank you for coming to check me out.  I like I have a place to post my artistic adventures as I am going to keep coming back, even when it is hard. And hard is the path the first two months have brought, not soly to me though, just saying outloud. AND... I need to run out to do a very important errand, however this blog is about starts, interuptions and stops or crossing the finish line, as the blog will be completed. So, Sci Fi Fans, this is Star Date: JP 2-14-19:5:31 and I will be back! Happy Valentine's Day, even if you have no one...enjoy the picture.

Hello again, Bring a cup of Coffee and Join Me, it's been awhile.

Thanks for taking a sit, I have been treading water to answer the global question, "Where'd she go?"

Ha!

Had to move twice, dealt with the fires of recent in So Cal, all the other stuff is stuff that happens when you move so if you've moved you get it.  If you haven't, hope you don't move, it can be rough.

Oh and I created three Instagram accounts, ("Of course she did,") I can hear someone saying, and have been busy posting my world to the world and loving it. Two are devoted to me, (@drawisaid & @jpdenyer) focusing on my metopmorphsis into my art, one personal one more business like; the third is a magical company (@cirquainc) that makes water for anything you need water for in the food service and pet industry, espeially coffee tea and now the cannibis world.

Other cliff-notes include real JP Denyer paintings is up for sale, on line, at Etsy, Art Finder and in the real touchy feely world, Hueneme Medical in Port Hueneme, CA; here I sold a beauty, the Turtle!

And...

You can now buy a JP Denyer painting morphed on a wide variety of commercial products via Zazzle.com . My brilliant leap into the marketing of my art closed out last year with zest and fun, do go have a look and of course, get yourself a gift!


So I'm going to go and play more pour paintings. I did these last night and I liked it. Ta ta for now...

 

 

What if you weren't living the life you imagined when you were 20?

As I sit here on Labor Day weekend, pondering as I usually do everyday, cleaning up emails, my life and much more, I came across this feeling of not being the "special snowflake" I imagined I should have been by now or as viewed from the eyes of a much younger person, back in the day. I remember fear struck in me when in Junior College, attending an art history class, as I learned about Grandma Moses, who achieved her fame in her late 70's I believe.  My first thought as a young 20 year old, was never wanting this to happen to me.  I desired reaching my goals far earlier in life. However, so far, looks like Grandma Moses has a stronger hold on my achievements than previously wanted by me, for me.

From that moment to now, I have been humbled by a karmic history I still have yet to understand, one that bites at my heels like a junk yard dog, injuring my journey, slowing down the momentum. In reflecting daily on the feeling I might not understand the whys of my karma, nor be able to correct this karma, even though I try very hard everyday to do just that, it does not feel like it is working yet. This karma, is mine to own and is baffling, however I am learning the value of old words with less satisfactory solutions, i.e. the repeating of the word, acceptance.  Saying the word "acceptance", and doing daily mantras to fixing my ills, my life struggles with my artistry are quite revealing, albeit difficult for me to live within the narrow boundaries my box provides. Given the less than expansive domain of my personally designed creative box of fun, this too affects how well I understand my karmic life. But I try, for I am tenacious, I also have a never give up type of personality and seem to continually find ways to move my life along. I straighten my shoulders, comply with how the world is different from what I remember it looked like when I was 20 and go forward, with hope, always hope, just like Pandora and her box of curiosity.

So, if you are inclined, follow me, like me, support me, champion me, or better yet, hire me.  Of what life is left in front of me, a personality test I took last night, thinks I am 38 years old, where I prefer to stay locked in at 23 years old, my personal favorite age to be. Both ages are far below where I am now chronologically, I still push forward with my life and its changes, happy trails to us all.
