Artwork by Kenne Jaxon Bailey (December 2017)
For many years I have used Photoshop to create electronic Christmas cards.
This year I am collaborating with our five-year-old kindergarten grandson, Jaxon.
Maybe I’ve started a tradition!

“Wired” — Computer Painting by kenne
a poem is
a dragonfly
darting near water
looking
for a place to rest upon
filled with freshness.
a poem is
of flight down
by the creekside —
standing water.
a poem is. . .
a poem is
wired.

Magic Mushroom On Mt. Lemmon — Computer Art by kenne
I went on this magical trip…
Out of reality, in a fantasy world,
Everything seemed to be so peaceful and perfect!
All harmony… no hate…
I soon realized I got to see the raw truth of reality,
but from a different point of view,
of contrasts and with no metaphors nor euphemisms.
— from Magical Trip By Sofia Rocha

THE PHOTOGRAPHER
The photographer (artist)
seeks to connect what
is already connected, the
past, present, and future
in a moment of existence
while being a traveler
in other people’s reality
sharing an awareness
of the present experience.
An awareness of the moment
with the whole being, the artist
is of the experience —
the essence of existence.
The artist desires to share
the essence, but the resulting image
is about the experience, not
of the experience —
the Tao of observation.
In the process
of capturing an event
the photographer feels
and sees in the moment,
the Tao of an event —
the Tao that is projected
is outside the moment
hence is not the
essence of Tao.

(Benson Sculpture Garden, “The Conversation” by Magdalen Weiner

A little boy
and his friend
always by his side
someone to talk to
someone to comfort
someone to love.

Arcosanti, Paolo Soleri Bells (June 7, 2017) Images by kenne
It is only logical that the pauperization of our soul and
the soul of society coincide with the pauperization of the environment.
One is the cause and the reflection of the other.

Reflections — Image by kenne
The empty vase, longing to be filled,
Waits patiently in the sink
For someone to turn on the faucet
The empty vase, full of love
Denies the fact that at this moment
It is just an empty vase
In a land where everyone is an empty vase
It is the human’s job
To hold all the flowers
Even an empty vase
Is fully capable
Of holding its own weight
