This is a picture of a statue that was taken in a museum in Europe. It's an image that evokes emotion.

I never thought that I would ever live in a world that was crumbling. I was raised in a world full of hope. In a world where you felt protected by your family, friends and government. After all I lived in America, a great rich, caring country, a positive force in the world.

But I 'm afraid now. And that is why I chose this particular image. For me it represents what I see coming after us all. It feels like total chaos or that a perfect storm is forming. How I ask myself has America gone from being a positive force to such a negative one?

But I have hope because Americans have common sense and many feel we can do anything we set our minds to. We should all keep in mind that with change there is always opportunity.

Tony and I will continue to make art, to display it on-line and in the physical world. We will always be willing to donate Tony's work to help others, to write about art, to encourage art. Take a moment right now and visit the Techno-Impressionist Museum. Get away from it all for a few minutes. There is lots of interesting art, displayed in many interesting ways. That part of the museum is called the Collections.

If you want to read something interesting visit Art and Zen of Design..Tony writes about lots of different things and posts interesting images as well.

I'm going to focus on keeping my wits, remember "don't panic" and hold on tight to by most precious and wondrous artist and best friend Tony. I really love him.

It's going to be a wild ride.
