Boom!  Insta Love is part of an ongoing series of large scale heart paintings that addresses the concept of love.  

 

Using a layered, intuitive process, this painting addresses through paint and random words my thoughts on “Instant Love”... a play on all of the love that we give on the Instagram photo sharing app.  And what about the concept of falling in love quickly?  Has that ever happened to you?  And then the reality sets in.  Ugh.  Maybe this isn’t love, this is just - well, wrong!  Oh no.  

 

The interplay of written words that are sometimes layered over adds to the concept.    Visible words are meant to be read and pondered.  And the bottom left corner has a quick essay...“Insta Love!  Constant images of what to love, false visions of unreal worlds.  Behind the scenes, it’s not so pretty.  But the instant vision is what we all want to believe.  What would happen if it became slow love instead?  I love that idea.  #InstaLove -> #SlowLove.  Yessss!  XO, M.E. 

 

These painting surprise me as I work - sometimes the paint does the talking, sometimes the words that I put down does, and sometimes they even seem to speak to each other.  I take my time - I work fast, then slow.  I sit back, evaluate, then move back into the painting quickly.  

 

What I’m most proud of with this series of paintings is how the hearts truly bring out a sense of emotion as well as discovery.  When I hung them up for show recently, I couldn’t help but feel super excited that the color and scale of this work really brought a whole new sense of play to the space.

 

The edges of the painting are raw and layered with paint, my favorite way.  If you prefer to have them finished all in white or another color, please let me know.

Concise, well researched and objective; a great homeschool resource
This is a great read; sufficiently detailed to be worth the time spent, but not so bogged down in minutia that you find yourself wondering how long the chapter is going to go on and glancing ahead to see if it ends with a quiz. Particularly notable is the prose: flowing, easy to read, a comfortable narrative. You get a sense of the author relaxed in an easy chair, his audience gathered about, attentive ears regaled with true tales of valor, intrigue, and conquest. But you will find no glorification of war between these covers; rather a well-balanced rendering of man at his best within his worst. “Great Battles” is well researched, factual, and untainted with retroactive speculation and subjective parochialism that pervade some of today’s ‘historical’ accounts. In short, a valuable addition to any homeschool or military historian’s library; highly recommended.

FINALLY!
Format: Paperback
I was pleased to finally find an historical series written for young boys that neither "cartoonizes" war nor adopts a satirical, demeaning tone. Rather, these books depict the true sacrifices of the men involved in these conflicts. The facts are the facts. There is no politically correct hogwash clouding the child's view of the event. These are more mature historical articles about pivotal events no longer discussed in our public school! These books glorify the ideals scrapped by post-modernists -- bravery, chivalry, and heroism -- ideals that once defined masculinity and limited its so-called "toxicity." As a mother raising masculine gentlemen, I will continue purchasing these fine books! Thanks, Mr. Giorello! Keep writing!
