Artists finish their work and an audience completes it! I like to imagine that I’m communicating with one person over the internet. I proofread and edit my messages a number of times pretending to be the targeted reader. Will the reader understand? This is how I got really good at editing! I’ve never been great… Continue reading Welcome!
Death
As far as I know, nothing is as inevitably constant as death. We cannot bank with any assurances on any of “life’s” adventures. Most often we haven’t a clue what’s around the next corner. We frequently wing it when it comes right down to it. Discovery is inspiration for the wandering soul. Not so with… Continue reading Death
Blessed
I like to write down what I think. I usually write only when I’m feeling good. This time I’m making an exception. I don’t feel good right now. I’m tired and sick of trying to make sense of the human sociocultural world. Good is bad and bad is good which is the root focus of… Continue reading Blessed

I picked up a snake yesterday and carried it away from my daughter’s garage. I placed it gently in the leaves next to the parking pad of her driveway. It was a small harmless rat snake. This wasn’t my first encounter with a snake. I’ve dispatched a few in my day. I still have some… Continue reading Slow
The Twig
Is God real? At first, God doesn’t speak or show Himself in a clear and precise way so we have to figure out on our own whether He is real. We figure this out from living and thinking about what it means to be alive. If we’re fortunate, we begin to see God everywhere in… Continue reading The Twig
God
God wants a personal relationship with each one of us. Private and personal because we each have a unique mind. He created us with a purpose. We learn what that purpose is usually over some time period. If we don’t relate to God or only relate to God while with others and not in private,… Continue reading God
Interactivity
I’m not ”fishing” for compliments or any specific feedback. Ed’s Art Net is just a form of artistic and spiritual expression. I hope that you enjoy my work. Period. I want you to feel good. End of story. I have a knack for the obvious and I’m not afraid to share. Interaction face to face… Continue reading Interactivity
Guns
Why are some folks empowering criminals? That’s irrational. Criminals are dangerous and destructive. Social misfits. Doesn’t everyone know that? They do evil things to others. Criminals hurt others. Many criminals cannot be rehabilitated and giving them freedom from deterrents gives them more power to do evil. Why do I feel the need to spell out… Continue reading Guns
Crisis
I don’t watch the news much, but I watched a popular news channel show yesterday evening. There were some noticeably disturbing messages. Paraphrasing… ”We are on the verge of global nuclear war. Our USA government is lying to us. Some people believe that cheating and lying is okay. Men are in the process of losing their… Continue reading Crisis
Feeling
I thought I would write about God. I’m always writing about myself, so it’s high time I wrote about someone else. But I have to write about God from my own perspective. So I reckon I can’t get away from that. I have never seen God unless you count what I can see of the… Continue reading Feeling
Knowing
What do we know? For one, we know that people love to know things. People love knowing things so much that sometimes they will PRETEND to know something that they virtually know nothing about. Unfortunately, pretending to know something that we know nothing about leads to even more people unknowingly not knowing what they think… Continue reading Knowing
