How we Perceive what we See.

 

 The Devastation is so complete and horrible like a bomb went off.  People hope to get right back to their lives, but so much has to be done because so much was effected. The infrastructure, jobs, electricity, the government governing systems...all must be resurrected.  
You might think this is the Jersey Shore, but these are photo's from New Orleans after Hurricane Katrina!  They don't look too different do they.  Nature is a tremendous master and global warming is here.  It is time we all speak the truth and say this is our new reality..these massive storms and earth changes.  
New Orleans Artists were on the fore front of bringing the city back, from art projects using the refuse, to musicians playing on street corners just to help people cope.  I hope New Jersey and New York can find the same creative minds of artists to help them cope and recover.  You are in our thoughts East Coast USA! 

ART AND DISASTER

Artists can put into painting what a thousand words cannot say.  J.M. Turner was a master painter of storms and the sea. I love his work.  It is impressionist, but at times almost abstract, but always felt with deep emotion.  
I dedicate this post to the North East United States that was hit by the most devastating storm they have ever had. It is horrific in scale and the damage almost unimaginable.  There are thousand still stranded as we speak waiting for rescue.  
May people start speaking the truth and face up to the fact global warming is a reality and this is it...this is our new future coping with extreme weather and rising seas.
