The Magic of the Cities.

Zen promotes the rediscovery of the obvious, which is so often lost in its familiarity and simplicity. It sees the miraculous in the common and magic in our everyday surroundings. When we are not rushed, and our minds are unclouded by conceptualizations, a veil will sometimes drop, introducing the viewer to a world unseen since childhood. ~ John Greer

Blues Étude






(Unknown Artist. Abandoned Art House.)

“Imagine a city where graffiti wasn't illegal,
a city where everybody draw whatever they liked.
Where every street was awash with a million colours and little phrases.
Where standing at a bus stop was never boring.
A city that felt like a party where everyone was invited,
not just the estate agents and barons of big business.
Imagine a city like that and stop leaning against the wall - it's wet. ”
― Banksy, Wall and Piece
