Tulipa 'Maytime' under Full Moon

Your eyes do not deceive - it is a clump of Tulipa 'Maytime' happily enjoying a few refreshing sips of gracious raindrops under the light of an abundant Full Moon.

Peek from the Jungle


Peek from the Jungle, an imaginary scene by jude cowell 2009+.

How I feel today: like Vesta Vertex!


No, this image isn't the usual fare here at the Secret Moon Art Gallery, but having been under the weather the last several days (now on the mend!) this drawing demonstrates how I feel today better than any whining words of wimpiness ever could, and represents my measley effort to Let Art Speak!

London artist gives his Art away for free

Have you heard of Adam Neate of London, England? He's an artist who gives his artwork away for free by leaving it on the street!

Have you heard of American artist, Jude Cowell? She gives her artwork away free online! In America, leaving artwork on the streets can get you a citation for littering.

Besides...have you seen my artwork?

When Do You Want to Know a Secret?



As the Bush-Cheney administration packs up to leave the White House in January '09, they're tucking many heinous secrets into their saddlebags and hoping to hide their deepest flaws from the public and from other interested parties.

Here you see a drawing from my Cosmic Persona Designs collection, Secret Gazer, which asks a certain question of you:

Do you want to know a secret?


Dreamyfish Art for portraits of certain tropical fish of Western Australia...some may be pretty shady characters like the False senator wrasse, a varmint if there ever was one.

If you like the infrequent and possibly groanworthy rhyme (perhaps of the limerick persuasion), try Lim's Limericks as dictated by Mr.A. Cat and his cohort, Lim, my chef and roommate. I'm merely the blog's typist and would-be editor and contributor.

Who knew cats could be so political? But as Lim often says, just because you have no interest in Politics, doesn't mean Politics isn't interested in you.

Wise words worth remembering. So don't think you're well-out. For you're not.

Mr.A.Cat, Esq., it may now be told, is a former agent in service to our nation. In a word, a spycat, as we may murmur in private company. 'Nuff said.

Actually, you, Lone Reader, may prefer Politics through the lens of Astrology for a peek under the hoods of political hoods...if so, visit:

Stars Over Washington

or

Jude's Threshold, a tapestry blog that loosely weaves Art, Astrology, Politics, and sometimes a smidge of Poetry into a brocade of creativity by this, your reluctant astrologer and lifelong artist, Jude Cowell.

A Large Disappointed Audience

Here is a full view of A Large Disappointed Audience, a drawing in honor of the Sabian Symbol for '28 Aries.'

In his book, The Sabian Symbols in Astrology, Dr. Marc Edmund Jones gives this degree as...

...the transiency of the rewards in a life taken too literally and narrowly in its more superficial terms. Implicit in the reversed symbolism is the disillusionment that comes when an individual learns that he cannot depend on the applause of his fellows, or make the momentary mood of the masses any proper guide for the values he should pursue.

There is here the call to a selfhood which can rest secure in its own creative potentiality, catering to nothing exterior to itself.

The keyword is: DISJUNCTION...

positive manifestation: complete spiritual independence;

negative/unconscious/shadow side: a destructive assimilation of the self to every defeat or frustration of human kind.

To which I would add: the show must go on!
