Happy New Years!! wishin you "nothin but happiness, come through your door"



 

new year, new art  . . .



The object of a new year is not that we should have a new year.

It is that we should have a new soul. G. K. Chesterton

May your troubles be less,

And your blessing be more.

And nothing but happiness,

Come through your door

Happy New Year, Darcy

Santa Claus Is Coming To Town . . . Gonna find out Who's naughty OR nice

Santa Claus Is Coming To Town

You better watch out 

You better not cry

Better not pout

I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is coming to town

He's making a list

And checking it twice;

Gonna find out Who's naughty and nice

Santa Claus is coming to town

He sees you when you're sleeping

He knows when you're awake

He knows if you've been bad or good

So be good for goodness sake!

O! You better watch out!
You better not cry

Better not pout

I'm telling you why

Santa Claus is coming to town

Santa Claus is coming to town

"Santa Claus Is Coming to Town" (sometimes with Coming changed to Comin') is a Christmas song. It was written by J. Fred Coots and Haven Gillespie, and was first sung on Eddie Cantor's radio show in November 1934. It became an instant hit with orders for 100,000 copies of sheet music the next day and more than 400,000 copies sold by Christmas.

"I love to collect and draw Santa's

When I was a kid, my Uncle Steve would call and pretend to be Santa.

My sisters and I absolutlely believed it was Santa and that he was checking his list to see if we'd been good. . ."

Father Christmas

"The long velvet robe, trimmed in mink, provides swift movement from place to place . . . Antique sleigh bells & braided cords worn on his pouch signify hope . . . Twigs of evergreen decorating his beret & staff represent the harbinger of spring . . . The Bag of Switches slung over his shoulder provides children with a incentive to be good or else...

Wherever Father Christmas goes, he brings the Magic & Beauty of Christmas with Him. ..

Merry Christmas to all!~

Life is a Gift!

Life is a gift~

"Autum Respite" sketch, artist: Darcy Gerdes (c)2010

" Live. And Live Well. BREATHE. Breathe in and Breathe deeply. Be PRESENT. Do not be past. Do not be future. Be now. On a crystal clear, breezy 70 degree day, roll down the windows and FEEL the wind against your skin. Feel the warmth of the sun. If you run, then allow those first few breaths on a cool Autumn day to FREEZE your lungs and do not just be alarmed, be ALIVE. Get knee-deep in a novel and LOSE track of time. If you bike, pedal HARD and if you crash then crash well. Feel the SATISFACTION of a job well done-a paper well-written, a project thoroughly completed, a play well-performed. If you must wipe the snot from your 3-year old' s nose, don't be disgusted if the Kleenex didn't catch it all because soon he'll be wiping his own. If you've recently experienced loss, then GRIEVE. And Grieve well. At the table with friends and family, LAUGH. If you're eating and laughing at the same time, then might as well laugh until you puke. And if you eat, then SMELL. The aromas are not impediments to your day. Steak on the grill, coffee beans freshly ground, cookies in the oven. And TASTE. Taste every ounce of flavor. Taste every ounce of friendship. Taste every ounce of Life. Because-it-is-most-definitely-a-Gift."

- Kyle Lake, "Sermon"

Happy Thanksgiving! Darcy

"Zhee-Clay" WHAT IS IT?

What is a giclee "zhee-clay"

Giclée (pronounced [ʒiːˈkleɪ] "zhee-clay" or /dʒiːˈkleɪ, from French IPA: [ʒiˈkle]), is an invented name (i.e. a neologism) for the process of making fine art prints from a digital source using ink-jet printing. The word "giclée" is derived from the French language word "le gicleur" meaning "nozzle", or more specifically "gicler" meaning "to squirt, spurt, or spray"[1]. It was coined in 1991 by Jack Duganne[2], a printmaker working in the field, to represent any inkjet-based digital print used as fine art. The intent of that name was to distinguish commonly known industrial "Iris proofs" from the type of fine art prints artists were producing on those same types of printers. The name was originally applied to fine art prints created on Iris printers in a process invented in the early 1990s but has since come to mean any high quality ink-jet print and is often used in galleries and print shops to denote such prints.

Art Alliance of Idyllwild Gears Up for its 13th Annual Art Walk and Wine Tasting

Art Alliance of Idyllwild Gears Up for its 13th Annual Art Walk and Wine Tasting

2010 Art Walk and Wine Tasting

Presented by the Art Alliance of Idyllwild

Dear Art Lover,

Each October, art and wine lovers flock to the mountain town of Idyllwild for the Art Alliance of Idyllwild's 13th Annual Art Walk and Wine Tasting. It's a fun-filled day of exquisite art, special exhibits, festive music, delicious appetizers and outstanding California wines and it's all in the name of education.

The Art Walk and Wine Tasting is the AAI's largest event of the year and a fundraiser for art education in local schools. It is also the culmination of each year's Second Saturday's series, which features a noteworthy art event on the second Saturday of selected months from March through October.

This year's Art Walk and Wine Tasting takes place Saturday, October 9th from 2 -5pm. A commemorative, collector's wineglass is your ticket to sample the wares of more than a dozen wineries represented along the gallery route. Hart Winery, Stuart Winery, Mega Wines, Middle Ridge Winery, PMDL Distributer, South Coast Winery, Wiens Winery, Sunshine Mountain Winery, DenBeste Vineyards, La Serenissima Winery and Young's Market are among those who will introduce some new releases and bring along their old favorites.

Your $25 wineglass purchase helps promote art and art education in Idyllwild. Proceeds go to Idyllwild School's smARTS program and to the scholarship fund at the Idyllwild Arts Academy. Wineglasses can be reserved ahead of time through the Town Crier web site (www.towncrier.com) or purchases at Idyllwild Realty (North Circle Drive - across from the Rustic Theater) on the day of the event. Group rates are available.


Artists and galleries have prepared special exhibits for the event. At Quiet Creek 'Living Room' Gallery, award-winning landscape paintings, ceramics, and photography will command your attention while you enjoy eclectic tunes, courtesy of house DJ "Mikey."


At The Courtyard Galleries, lively sounds from the popular band "Change Required" will enhance the courtyard's ambience while Nel Ivancich's new exhibit, "Paper or Plastic," will provide a thought provoking focal point "Californian's use approximately 19 billion plastic bags annually," says Ivancich. "These bags eventually migrate to our landfills or the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, a circular hodgepodge of litter in the North Pacific Ocean that is the size of Texas." Work by the gallery's seven permanent artists will also be on display.

The Art Alliance of Idyllwild is a non-profit, 501(c)3 organization with a mission to promote art, artists and galleries in Idyllwild, California, which ranks as one of the top 100 art towns in America. For more information about the Art Walk and Wine Tasting or other AAI activities, please call 877-439-5278 or visit our web site at http://www.artinidyllwild.com/.

We hope you will join us!

Sincerely,Art Alliance of Idyllwild

Wicked Wild Dancing at "The Witches Tree"

  




"The Witches Tree" Photo by D. Gerdes (c) 2010 ,

  The Witches Tree

A couple years ago, a friend showed me a tree, that ancient Idyllwildians named  "The Witches Tree" It is located somewhere near Idyllwild in the San Jacinto mtns. It is amazing. Its been said that there's often been sightings of wicked wild dancing there silhouetted by the light of the moon. One night a year, be aware that on ole Hallowed Eve "the eve before All Hallows' Day," rumour has it that local Witches will gather that night, to dance creating energy for conjuring of spells.  . 

 I ve been sworn to secrecy of its location, for fear of being turned into a toad or worse. . .
