May 18th   Post on current events.  This is a staggering time!   Since (as stated before)   A SEA Gallery had to close due to the "pandemic"   and I, NOW  the sole  member of this organization,   am still a socially engaged artist,  will write periodically about what I think is occuring on Planet Earth.  I have concluded the Covid 19 virus was created by some lab, probably in the USA as a from of bio-enginiering.   While we were told that the different vaccines had been tested as 90% + affectiveness to prevent the spread; then we were told it would not prevent our getting,it so we must continue wearing masks.   The masks depersonalize everything.  One does not recognize friends (or who are unfriendly)  everyone, bandits and benign look the same.   I have yet to meet a person with Covid, but in the meantime I have lost 3 siblings, 2  to cancer and one to complications of a stroke, not helped by the fire that burnt down Paradise. Ca. and leveled her home and almost melted her car as she barely escaped in a 7 hour drive. To force people to get the vaccine is Facist.  It's proof of affectiveness is nil.  But my own experience with being around vaccinated people is =  something is wrong.    The vaccinated people are shedding toxins to others.   Put a magnet on to the point where the needle went into the arm:  the magnet sticks!   There is aluminum in the mix.  And i have further proof of it.  And Nanobots (sp?)   Those in power want this all dismissed as a 'conspiracy' theory.  Well it's not just a theory;  it is a conspiracy.  The truth will emerge.  Trust your gut. not your government.  

 This is my first post since closing the gallery on Old Santa Fe Trail!  Things began well in January of 2020;  Jeff Bingamin came in and bought a framed etching etching series  and was interested in another set (Rancho de Taos) which i promised to print for him.  In February a neighbor friend and collector made a purchase, so I was hopeful more collectors would appear, but instead the "Pandemic"   came.  I bravely held a few small shows, ending with a really significant one featuring artists i love and admire (including two very successful ones).  The gallery and i were honored by showing 7 paintings by Jerry West,  5 prints plus 2 paintings by Ron Pokrasso, new 3 dimensional work by Louise Baum,  Nudes by David Rogers and Monika Steinhoff's 6 piece Cosmography (The 4 major World Religions and our imperiled Earth).   Attendance of course was sparse and mostly by appointment,  but it was a worthy final show I was courageous to have put on and am still proud of.   

Now I will devote this blog (Socially Engaged Artist that I am)  to reflecting on contemporary events and to publicize some excerpts  of the book i am planning:  The life and Art of Monika Steinhoff.  

This Blog will also air what I believe is the truth about the 'pandemic' shared but rarely vocalized by others around the world which is:  the Corona Virus is so serious because world-wide public health is so impacted by the negative effects of wireless (and many other pollutants of course).  I am painfully aware that this is not a popular view because people love their smart phones so much, are addicted to instant   'connectedness' and society has made it difficult (most feel impossible) to get along without. [I pay a price: isolation.]  but I have also gained a lot:  a deeper more satisfying relation to Nature, 

also to my inner voice, and progressive freedom from illusion.
