The Story of the Peace Sun...

One evening shortly after I moved into the apartment currently known as "the Ocho" I had such a wild enthusiasm to paint that I couldn't contain it...  I went into my studio (it's actually a large kitchen, but 75% of it is used as a studio)

pulled out the largest canvas I had on hand and started to gather paints... My arts supplies were rather low as some things were still packed in storage following the move - but I gathered every bit of paint I could find... many of the tubes were close to empty, so I began to cut them open with a blade - shake the paint onto the canvas and keep moving until it would go no further... Aside from the fact that I'm a hippy at heart, I have no idea why I started painting the Peace Sun.  It started with the actual peace sign because I had planned another project with this canvas and had a large circle of raised decopage in the center.   After I completed the sun, I had my paint brush loaded with white to touch up the highlighting within the peace sign. When I dropped that brush - leaving a blob of white on the canvas, the words of my Jefferson School Art Teacher, Craig Rhodes echoed in my head ... "If you make a mistake just make it work..." ...and that my friends is when the bubbles and squiggly lines were created. Sometime later, my friend of 20+ years, Amy the Spirit Dancer asked me to paint a Peace Sun for her Asheville apartment....  After working tirelessly with photos of the original painting to create an "image", I now have this 

Peace Sun Rectangle Magnet

As with all of my designs, some of them evolve every so often - 

and there are still a lot of projects I  have planned for the Peace Sun... 

Hope you LOVE it!  If you know a peacenik, a beatnik, a hippy or someone who just likes to be reminded to be a peaceful and kind creature - please do feel free to share this with them -
