The Positive Voices

I learn all the time. Been making artwork since I started: mostly paintings, and I do a little bit of writing about science. Martial arts, spirituality, philosophy, theories and beliefs inspire me. There are a lot of designs, patterns and mixed textures in my work, but there’s more to it than just paint. It’s structure. It’s technique. It’s visualization. This is powerful. Life flows, like martial arts. There is no program, and yet there is: it’s a balance. This is a way of living. Heartside Gallery is open Monday through Friday from 9:30am until 3:30pm. The gallery is located immediately north of the ministry’s main door at 54 S. Division Avenue, Grand Rapids, MI 49503; Ph: 616/235-7211; www.heartside.org. Visitors are always welcome. Volunteer opportunities are available. Donations are gratefully received. Note: Because some Neighbors struggle with substance issues, Heartside Studio does not use oil based, aerosol paints or solvents.Gifts of acrylics, watercolors, and pastels are welcome, as well as canvas, frames & paper, etc.
