“Life Is Art”: Art Life–Words
It has been a while since I’ve posted new stuff here! Here is the “Words” part of this project. These are short prose poems of my take on what is happening now.

“Life Is Art”: Art Life–Music
Here is the music part of this “Life Is Art” project. I worked on both music and poems at the same time, and decided to separate them, rather than have a poem precede each piece of music. There is a bit of a “Jim Boormanism” in all this. After I came up with the title of the project (this went through several iterations), I realized the multiple meanings a la punism. Punctuation is very important (remember “Eats, Shoots, and Leaves”!). So, I like the idea that the title is a bit of a cliche about life and art, but you can also read it as a quotation from the person, Art Life, who perhaps, is a bit of a narcissist:>)
Some of these pieces are long (longest about 12 minutes), so be forewarned! Make a cup of tea and imbibe the vibe.

Waystations
It’s been a while since I’ve posted. The world seems to have turned upside down in the meantime, but I continue to write songs and improvise instrumentals. Here is my latest offering, on the theme of Waystations. I like the word, as it feels like those off ramps from the main road of life, that we choose to explore and learn from.
Hope you enjoy!
