I like the whole piece. Especially the Hebrew. If only my computer would write Hebrew. I don't have the fonts installed.

There a varity of fre fonts places to goto
[link] is one place i hit pretty hard, occasionaly ill even goto indiviuals people pages who produce some. Font collecting can be addicting and massively slow down your load time photoshop, so try to be picky.

Dont know if ill be pulling another one of these off soon, but i am very happy with the responce. Its not that it nessarly the most popular, which isnt my goal.. What I am very happy about is that I have gotten a few of you to think about some very deep possible things. This will give me much thought, because try as i have, most of the time my material does not bring much reflection(which is my faliure on my part to communicate), which means i have failed in my job. Part of the issue is fractals can be downright boring, i started with such a limited medium because its just so great for abstract etherealness quality i was after. Perhaps in time as i translate this over to other mediums, the freshness will return. I want to so badly in my art open the world up to more possbilities, so that people will wake up and realize there dreamself is just as important as there waking self, that you and I are living the great mythology in our own lives. We have only to open the door of our imaginations, and look out on a world that has always been there but that we never seem to see.

wow, well thats a huge compliment, think one of the biggest iv received in my life. Therefore I will have to work harder to be worthy of it. I am thinking about buying an easel, now that i have some oil point laying around. I hope I will be able to turn to you for some advice, being that I to will being doing some abstracts in oil.

great man! oil paint is such a wonderful medium. for one thing is so presitgious because of its past. its vastly more flexable(not literaly) than acrylic. i recommend liquin or res n gel for your drying medium. when i start a painting i use 50% dryer 50% oil. this establishes a soild foundation for you to continue adding oil and using less dryer. the top layer i use pure oil paint. some artists at this point wait for it to completly dry and then apply a coat of varnish to protect the painting. feel free to ask about anything, your work is inspiring!

Wait. Did this actually happen? if not, it sure sounds like a good premise for a crichton-ese book.

L. George Lawrence, Dr. Backster and Dr. Jacques Benveniste are real people who have discoverd very far out things. Quantum flux technologies( kind of like an MRI, but rather then lining up neutrons using electromagnetis, its uses quarks) is not beyond the realm of technical feasiblity. There are corperations working on life-force generation technologies and measure devices. And thats what makes this good horror. Sometimes we discover things we dont want to know. To expose ourselves to such pure psychological forces in light of humanities zero change in how we emotionally respond to are enviroment(this is why you can read material from 6,000 b.c. and relate to it), is foolery. This is simply an exstension of the qoute "I have seen the enemy, and the enemy is us". We exsternalize our fears to exorsize them, when in all reality there something deep inside us all that we fear. This is just a possible story of techno-lifeforce discoveries that are on our horizen that mind up on the vista's of that fear.

That is scary. So it's reasons like this, things we don't want to know about, that are why area 51 is 'non-existent'?

There are many truths in life that people fear to face. Most of the time are leaders sholders them. Sometimes because it empowers them, sometimes because we would simply go mad. Area 51 is an odd topic, someday soon I will deal a little with the Roswell. If your ever exstremely bored you could look up informations on O.T.O. involvment with entities called LAM, making there little gateways to who knows were out in that dessert, 6 months before the crash. As your favorite author G.K. Chesterton would say
"there is no new news, only old news happening to new people." With the advent of the atomic bomb showing us that the only light we acheived out of the 18th century hopes of enlightment was are own annilation. God, angels, aliens, death and the beyond are just as happening now as the dawn of mankind. For me ulitmately to truely gaze at the wellspring of life would get a glimpe of something outside ourselves(worthy of a kubrick 2001 space odyssesy encounter), which i think is even more horrifying then death itself to most of us. I personally would gaze apone God although it would kill me on the spot, to me it would be a life best spent.

I'm aware this is random, but what about bigfoot and Nessie?
I think nessie is quite possible, and I want to believe in bigfoot. But BF just seems less likely.
