a new artist... Frank

You know what I love about Facebook is the fact that you really can get to know new people all over the world and so also find so many interesting folk to talk to and some of them yes, some of them do art... they write, they act, they sing, they play.. they show it how they dance and you can listen to them singing and then read the books, the songs, the poems, the blogs and so on... The best thing with that is.. you are able to widen your mind... yeah.. you can easy get more and more to know and understand, be happy about, smile over and losing your doubts in discussion on several areas... also you learn so much about how less you know and how much the world has to share ...and here is a man I want to share with you... 
He is an Actor, but mostly a singer.. and since a while a painter also... a good one I must say... as a singer and a painter...

Once I read on a posted painting, that someone wrote he is the new Monet... 
Well his pictures are bit different but as the beloved Monet, he paints in a way which makes you feel easy and comfortable looking at the pics... Mostly they don't have names but sometimes the working process has one..like view from above...
But he has a style which does not show houses or people or things easy to catch and call, no, he works with imagination and in that he has variations... he can make it passionate, or quite, make it like in a fairy tale and then another time very spiritual, also you can find yourself in happy paintings he made... which is very amusing...
So this painter actually lives and works in London and is really worth a watch and... You can buy what he did... Just contact him or look out for exhibitions with him or of him...

London & me

Once again.. I took a short holiday and was in London... This time I stayed at the "Britannia International" which is a Hotel on the Canary Wharf. Peers who once where used and then stood still year after year till it looked like all should be putting away but then a bank build a big, big house and so the miracle started... Now this area is very modern, has also little houses... a lot of working place and of course you can live there, shop till you drop there and I was never before there... I liked it, and not because I got my room upgraded and stayed on the tent floor, which had a view on the river.... and the morning sun...

The Hotel seems to stay in the 70tis and the furnitures where a mix of .. well, kind of wannabe "Barock" and "Jugendstil", although somehow it matches everything... and thanxs big windows the room felt quite right... I cannot understand people who close the view they could have from the window.. I always liked it "pure".

London -as always makes me feel good and welcome... and I discover always some new things like the new grass they put in the parks because the Olympic had brought so much visitors that the grass was dying and dying... 

And oh I had the luck of sun... seems it was the first one sunny sunday this year, 'cos everyone was outside.. and the traffic as typically in London on weekends... someone told me... not really working...

But traffic was all the time not what I expected... Did not remember that the ways on the airport are so long and then the Gatwick Express which should not really take more then 30 min was late and then it took about 50 minutes and I though I could have taken the bus... well the same though was coming up when I drove back to the airport... late train, wrong gate, then I found the right train, but we had to change two station before the airport and run to the right train on another gate to drive us forward, although you needed eyes and a brain... :-) So after all, the 30 minutes became one hour.... But that's life and oh. so much like I know it from Berlin... everything is going on the way to renew... build new.. taken away or something like that... nothing really stays the same.. in good and bad....

Anyway, this time I saw much more the difference between Berlin and London.. beginning just with the buildings... the coffee, the colors of the houses, the toilets, the way people act and the mass of tourists...  and I think it is also because after seeing Dr. Who and Documentation about the History of London and after reading Shakespeare... I know a bit more and so my eyes catch new sides... which is so exiting.. 

If London would not be so expensive... I would move without doubt to town... 

Well I had the luck to take breakfast -a french one, in the greek street- and also to eat fish and ships- a must in my eyes- in one of the three oldest location who sell those since 1871... although.. I missed the Pups this time. I cannot say I was bored, more it was a little holiday like it should be.. 

Yes also with a walk in town and a visit in the National Museum... 

But now let's take a look at the pics...won't you?

there I got the very good french breakfast

the flowers in the National Museum.. oh the smell... of flowers... you really could smell them ..

Canary Wharf at the afternoon

the next morning.. can you believe the clouds so deep..?! And that was after the sun went up.. the sky was clear and blue before...unbelievable how it could change and with such a speed...

can you see the Big Ben?

Common Sense

Today I would like to recommend a book I have read... took me a while to finish it, 'cos I simple had too less time to read... anyway this book is from a friend and no I'm not gonna say - oh it is sooooo gooooood you haaaave to buy it!!!! 
Well, true is, the book is good... 
Why is it that?
To start with the style of writing... it is easy to read and simple but in no way boring. He clarifies and has examples who are good to see... although sometimes you need a bit patience 'cos he does not always take the short way to tell you what you should know... This is not because he is writing without use, it's because sometimes this is simple needed. 
What I like it's a book for business and private life to learn how to deal and manage things.
He writes about which way you can go and why... Yes he declares and gives you reason to understand why things work out or mostly not and what you can do, although last thing comes quite late in the book because it takes a longer time to describe the background for the ways you can finally go. 
I think most of you will be grateful for this, 'cos mostly we don't think much about it. If you have already learned a bit about this you should read it too, 'cos it can make you remember and ask yourself.. Am I doing it right now? Have I learned from my mistakes... Am I taking it seriously? 
You know to manage sounds more easy but we trap and fall often, which is no shame but why are we sometimes doing it over and over again and here we are with this book... It helps you to see it. Remember it. And because it has capability for private life it is also very helpful to understand all that what you do or should do. 
Just now I hope he will remember his writing very well 'cos there is a child coming and he has some examples about that too... Good luck with the practice... have patience and remember! :-)

Another reason to read this book is, it shows you how different we are and how easy we condemn others without really knowing them and in fact we are more and more having connections worldwide, so we should remember this... and he also makes you being aware of it with examples to try by yourself. He gives you question to answer... and you will laugh about yourself... how stupid we can act, although we though we never did it that much.. right... And he knows very much about it as a traveler and a man who speaks several languages...
The book is in english and that's why I think this is another good reason to take the lesson with it. It's a language which is common to most of us but let him explain this by himself.... search for the page... !
Third thing.. the book is in chapters, not too much -so you can deal easy... He catch you in the beginning and holds you and let you go with a final though... Which is always very good for you feel save with this..
And now... why not you read it... 
It's easy to read, helps you to understand and gives you something to work with in business and life. 
It's not too big and not boring you... gives you a lot of information and examples which are easy to find and understand... It connect practice and theory... so it is useful...

Do you see what I see?

When I walk around... in town or somewhere I am often someone who catch little things with his eyes... No matter what it is... a flower which seems in this moment perfectly nice and make my day or the ballon flying somewhere... or bubbles some people pop up to enjoy the working and rushing people to make them stop for a moment and rest, and think and say... Hey, there is more in this world then this you've done today...! Or I see birds in the underground when it's rainy and they try to eat but we walk next to them and watch 'em... also I see often art on walls ... mostly on houses... most of them stay just a short time, some stay longer for a little while and we can smile about it, if we see it, getting aware of... I also like the fact that in a town you are able to see old times, new times taking over old times or renewing these... Many houses shows more history the most of us are willing to take a look at and think about it... in better or worse... So now you see some pics of all this I took while taking a walk or when I was on the way to somewhere....
