Imagination Sandwich by SARK

renowned Canadian artist Rob Gonsalves depicts that time between sleep and wakefulness, creating a breathtaking, visual exploration of imagination and possibility that encourages us to think past the   more...boundaries of everyday life, and see the possibilities beyond. His imagery invites the viewer to move past reality into a somewhat surreal depiction of what fantasy and imagination could be. In each of his paintings, what appears to be becomes something else. The supports of a train bridge become acrobats balanced on shoulders. A stately home in autumn is also a tree house being constructed by children. A child playing with a toy train sees a real train coming through the archway in his living room. Children bouncing on beds take off in flight above a patchwork landscape. A violinist sitting on a porch plays music to tall sunflowers which, on closer look become leafy people whose faces are in a sleepy trance.  less

Imagination is a faculty of the mind, which is very least practiced to accomplish the goals. Those people who use imagination mostly use it negatively about the problems   more...they are facing and imagining the worst thing that could happen to them.

Webster's dictionary defines imagination as "the act or power of forming a mental image of something not present to the senses or never before wholly perceived in reality". In "Think and Grow Rich", most successful personal development book ever written, Napoleon Hill mentioned that, "the impulse, the DESIRE, is given shape, form, and ACTION through the aid of the imaginative faculty of the mind." He also said that a man can create anything which he can imagine. When you set a goal and decided to accomplish by certain time, you need to add imagination factor for the action steps you devised to accomplish the goal. You need to imagine as if you had already accomplished the goal you had set. This is not mandatory, but definitely increases the chances of accomplishing the goal faster. It is recommended that, when you imagine having some thing in possession or having accomplished a goal, you need to feel it emotionally.

It has been proved that mind cannot distinguish between an experience vividly imagined and a real one. There are many experiments, which have proven this fact. Like any other exercise, imagination must be practiced on daily basis. Mind cannot distinguish between negative and positive imagination. It manifests an imagination into reality irrespective of the type of imagination. So it is wise to imagine positively than negatively. There is no concept of time in the realm of God. Even though we put a date on our goal, the actual accomplishment of the goal usually varies because the factors like desire, faith, action, belief have to be in proper proportion in order for your subconscious mind to manifest your goal into reality.

My experience with how money affected me as an artist.

Money influenced me as an artist.
For some time, i did not realize to the actual extent i was influenced by money within my expression as an artist.   more...I believed that i was actually able to express myself free from the system, specifically here the money system.
However at this moment i look back at my experience as an artist and i see to what extent i was not free from the system, not free from the money system.
It affected me at every turn, every decision, every movement.
So let me look back at my development as an artist and explore the relationship/partnership i had with money and how money actually influenced me extensively as an artist in this world.
An artist of all occupations.
An artist, apparently free.
I choose to be an artist because i believed it was a free expression, because i believed that i would be free within this expression.
Or did i choose to be an artist because my fathers father did not have enough money for his son, my father,to get an education which in turn affected his income and therein influenced what type of education his children, myself included would have available. And thus i ‘’chose’’ to study art.

So given the income of my family perhaps it was more suitable for me to take a liking to drawing at a young age - besides we did not have boxes of toys - we did have some, yes, but not overwhelmingly so that the paper and crayons were always within reach. I started to get serious about being an artist when i was about 16 years old. I enjoyed sports also but found myself many days after school sitting in my room drawing for hours. It was a cheap hobby. Paper and pencils and i was set. Paper and pencil still now 10 years later being the foundational application of my artistic practice - drawing, why? Its inexpensive, even if i have little money i usually can afford a sketch book and some drawing supplies. I Went to art school for 4 years and would you know it, i opted for a drawing major instead of painting. Drawing was much less expensive.

I applied for and received student loans to pay for my education.Of course i could not afford to go to school outside the country - to study in the places where the masters i saw in the books worked and lived. However i was fortunate enough to actually be granted money from my government and even go to school. In fact, when i was in school, i was rich! I spent most of my money on art supplies of all kinds focusing as mentioned on drawing. You could stick a 5 foot piece of paper to the wall at less than half the price it would cost to hang a painting of the same size - of course you could sell it for less than half as much as well - that is if the people with the money liked it. FUCK THAT!!! I didn't feel like making pictures for money. Oh, and i never sold many of of those either.


I applied for money from my government so i could focus solely on study while in school. I thought i would have 4 years to really get this then after that it was on my own so i better take this opportunity and use it effectively. So this is what i did. I worked diligently, on the art that is, i didn't care to much about anything else outside my studio. I did not even realize that during this time i was so passionately studying art, looking at the great artists of the past, studying their work, looking in books, reading art theory about beauty and form and of course FREEDOM ,that the very essence of my/this pursuit was/has been compromised from the very beginning. I was attempting to understand freedom, freedom of expression, what did this mean, i studied art for 4 years in school than another 3 after, all of this missing the point that everything i ever created was not free, was not freedom of expression was not self, expression not by any stretch of the imagination. Every painting i ever created, had an interesting ingredient within it. I had an invisible partner collaborating with me, side by side, i agreed t  less

They are quiet figures at the center of some of the Bible's most miraculous moments. They steeled David against Goliath, warned Abraham of Sodom's destruction and freed Peter from jail. But while the   more...work of angels has long stirred popular imagination, wonder and debate cloud the details of their holy purpose. What do the Scriptures tell us about them? Are they messengers from Heaven? Are they ancient aliens? What do they look like? Do they continue to guide and help us today? And what happened to the "fallen angels?" This program searches for clues in the stories of the Bible's heavenly spirits.  less
