    In 2007 we passed thru a little town on the Oregon Coast and the small seaport village was painted by "Rick Chambers".  Looking thru my images I was reminded his signature was dated ©12/67.   Well the images struck a strong memory in my head and heart (as hopefully art does) and it was on my mind….so here's to RC where ever he may be…

    I found this on the web…. looks like his work…documented with other Portland OR stuff.

    For some time now, I've been facinated with the art along the North Embarcadero.  The exhibits seem to magically change.  Sulpted with inspiration and imagination,  they are generally quite vibrant attractions along the waterfront.   

    October 2010 30 new art-works will be displayed for an entire year.

    Your insides look & feel like this ………………

    Instead of like this……….

    Happy 2011-04-05 at 7.11.28 AM

    Everything that gives you energy is good and needs to be embraced. Everything that zaps it is bad and needs to be avoided. 

    Think of people as magnets. All magnets have a positive and a negative charge. People can either make you feel positive and energized or negative and drained. Sometimes you can just walk into a room and zap, your energy seems to have been sucked out of you. We all know individuals who always seem to drain our energy – spend one hour with them and you need one whole day to recover!

    A closer look is very revealing ….

    Colour My World 

    Artist – Petula Clark

     

    You'll never see a dark cloud hanging round me.

    Now there is only blue skies to surround me.
    There's never been a gray day since you found me.
    Everything I touch is turning to gold.

    Oh, you can colour my world with sunshine yellow each day!
    Oh, you can colour my world with happiness all the way!
    Just take the green from the grass and the blue from the sky up above!
    And if you colour my world just paint it with your love!
    Just colour my world.

    Just as long as I know you're thinking of me,
    there'll be a rainbow always up above me.
    Since I found the one who really loves me,
    everything I touch is turning to gold.

    So you can colour my world with sunshine yellow each day!
    Oh, you can colour my world with happiness all the way!
    Just take the green from the grass and the blue from the sky up above!
    And if you colour my world just paint it with your love!
    Just colour my world.
    Um.

    Sunshine yellow.
    Orange blossums.
    Laughing faces
    everywhere!
    Yeah!

    Oh, you can colour my world with sunshine yellow each day!
    Oh, you can colour my world with happiness all the way!
    Just take the green from the grass and the blue from the sky up above!
    And if you colour my world just paint it with your love.
    Just colour my world.
    Colour my world.
    Oh, colour my world.
    Colour my world!
