Photos from my latest art accompanied by quotes I like from Edmund Husserl who was a German philosopher who established the school of phenomenology.

Good day to you my brothers and sisters. Today, as my work has been described by professionals in the field of art as Phenomenological, I thought it may be interesting to use quotes by Edmund Gustav Albrecht Husserl. Husserl was a German Philosopher who established the school of Phenomenology. He lived from 1859-1938.



To begin with, we put the proposition: pure phenomenology is the science of pure consciousness.



Psychologically experienced consciousness is therefore no longer pure consciousness; construed Objectively in this way, consciousness itself becomes something transcendent, becomes an event in that spatial world which appears, by virtue of consciousness, to be transcendent.





To every object there correspond an ideally closed system of truths that are true of it and, on the other hand, an ideal system of possible cognitive processes by virtue of which the object and the truths about it would be given to any cognitive subject.








The actuality of all of material Nature is therefore kept out of action and that of all corporeality along with it, including the actuality of my body, the body of the cognizing subject.



Within this widest concept of object, and specifically within the concept of individual object, Objects and phenomena stand in contrast with each other.







The ideal of a pure phenomenology will be perfected only by answering this question; pure phenomenology is to be separated sharply from psychology at large and, specifically, from the descriptive psychology of the phenomena of consciousness.








If all consciousness is subject to essential laws in a manner similar to that in which spatial reality is subject to mathematical laws, then these essential laws will be of most fertile significance in investigating facts of the conscious life of human and brute animals.









Natural objects, for example, must be experienced before any theorizing about them can occur.

                                        





  These next two shots are the wrong way around and so if you tilt your head 45 degrees to the left, then you will perceive it as it ought to be...



 Of course some of my work can be viewed which ever way you desire. I on occasion look from all different sides and angles.



 Philosophers, as things now stand, are all too fond of offering criticism from on high instead of studying and understanding things from within.


 In all the areas within which the spiritual life of humanity is at work, the historical epoch wherein fate has placed us is an epoch of stupendous happenings.

Getting on with life, but being mindful of those who are slowing down or stuck.

Good day my beloved brothers and sisters.
As some of you are aware I am still missing my youngest son Harry, who is fortunate enough to have gone to Heaven already.

His brother Josh has already had a dream that Harry was with my first wife Tracy who died at the age of 25yrs old!

So lets move on to the art which I have to get immersed in as my activity of choice. 
It seems some artists, be they painters or musicians seem to transfer their activity of choice from their art, to drinking or taking drugs.    Each to their own hey!   I understand it and have myself to fight the desire to take to the bottle and take up paint and paper instead. Being steadfast!  

I have been doing an extraordinary amount of work. Also going to the gym and swimming pool as well. One day soon I may decide to get in the water, or use the gym! Only joking.
   Harry was going to the gym a lot just before he got the graft vs host syndrome and died within days. Yes, recalling this does make me groan and my eyes leak salty water. Having finished the blog some time ago I check it for mistakes and groan out in anguish when I come to this small bit about Harry.  ;-\

      Getting in close below and looking at the `peaces` which attracted my attention.









         These seem like the paint wants to rise up off the paper and whirl through the air!







Finishing off my beloved brothers and sisters with, yes, some more monoprint work. Though as you can see there is an odd one out. Or are there five odd ones out and one odd one in?  Dont want to make you think. Just feel. Feel good and feel love. I am loving you all and want you to pass this on. 
Your brother in Christ and of all the saints, esp St. Blaise. ps... Be good and know that you are loved. As I on occasion do, I shall let you know my email address is  petgkimb@gmail.com  this is so anyone can contact me for a variety of reasons. For example just to share some thing you like or that you like which I have done. Another is that you may really like my art and have somewhere for me to exhibit, or better still for us all; you want to purchase my art.
Then again you may just want to make friends and I am happy for this!    

  Saints Fun Facts for St. Blaise

The Acts of St. Blaise



The legend as given in the Grande Encyclopédie is as follows:The legendary Acts of St. Blaise were written 400 years later.[5] The Acts of St. Blaise, written in Greek, are medieval.
Blaise, who had studied philosophy in his youth, was a doctor in Sebaste in Armenia, the city of his birth, who exercised his art with miraculous ability, good-will, and piety. When the bishop of the city died, he was chosen to succeed him, with the acclamation of all the people. His holiness was manifest through many miracles: from all around, people came to him to find cures for their spirit and their body; even wild animals came in herds to receive his blessing. In 316, Agricola, the governor of Cappadocia and of Lesser Armenia, having arrived in Sebastia at the order of the emperor Licinius to kill the Christians, arrested the bishop. As he was being led to jail, a mother set her only son, choking to death of a fish-bone, at his feet, and the child was cured straight away. Regardless, the governor, unable to make Blaise renounce his faith, beat him with a stick, ripped his flesh with iron combs, and beheaded him.[6]

I know some people claim to be Christian and yet do atrocities in the name of God, or in secret behind closed doors. These are not Christians, but are wolves in sheep`s clothing.   


The blessing of St. Blaise

 Blessing of the Throats
According to the Acts, while Blaise was being taken into custody, a distraught mother, whose only child was choking on a fishbone, threw herself at his feet and implored his intercession. Touched at her grief, he offered up his prayers, and the child was cured. Consequently, Saint Blaise is invoked for protection against injuries and illnesses of the throat.
ttfn brothers and sisters. Please those of you who pray, pray that I continue to think good thoughts, speak good words and do good actions.
