Fire Storm

Australia and especially Victoria is suffering from dreadful bushfires. Many homes but more importantly, many lives have been lost. This is a disaster, described by Victoria’s Premiere – John Brumby – as The Worst Day in our History

What has this to do with art though?

In an attempt to help raise funds for victims of the fire storms that have and are raging in Victoria, some members of RedBubble have decided to donate the profits from their work – and in some cases match the sale price of their work – in dontations to fire victims.

If you want to do something for yourself AND for the fire victims, surf on over to The Phoenix Appeal and buy a card, some wall-art – whatever.

Here are just a few of the items available – check them out.

Time for Nirvana

The Buddhists call it ‘Nirvana’ – a state of perfect being devoid of all suffering.

I can’t offer you that, but I have located an exceptional RedBubble artist who can give you a glimpse of it. Her name is Naomi Frost and much of her talent lies with the bringing of heaven down to earth. Her portfolio will stun and amaze you. Take a look at just three examples of heaven:

Nirvana

In Zen there is understanding in non-understanding. At least, there may be. But this image reaches deep into the mind, past the bars of conceptualization. Here, then, is a touch of Nirvana.

Innocence

Where would heaven be found more simply, than in childhood innocence?

Sommersby Cascade

If you think it’s time to find that little bit of nirvana, that little bit of heaven, then here’s your chance.
