“Infinite Storm of Beauty” | Anthony Satori
“When we contemplate the whole globe as one great dewdrop, striped and dotted with continents and islands, flying through space with other stars all singing and shining together as one, the whole universe appears as an infinite storm of beauty.”
— John Muir
“Fred Armisen” (2017) | Anthony Satori
One of the goals of a portrait is to capture a glimpse of the spirit within, to create an image that expresses some essential aspect of the subject’s nature.
Fred Armisen is an actor, writer, comedian and musician. He is best known for his work on Saturday Night Live and Portlandia. He is easily one of the funniest and most talented performers working today, but also, to my experience, he is one of the nicest people in the industry. Watching Armisen’s improv and character work on screen you get a feeling of genuine warmth, intelligence and humor, and these traits come across even more in person, when he is just being himself.
“Inner Beauty” | Anthony Satori
For me, art is a kind of magic. It is the act of bringing inner beauty out into the light.
“Night Palm” | Anthony Satori
Be optimistic. You may actually be right. And even if you’re wrong, life will be a lot more fun along the way.
“The Ripple Effect” | Anthony Satori
“On one hand, we know that everything happens for a reason, and there are no mistakes or coincidences. On the other hand, we learn that we can never give up, knowing that with the right tools and energy, we can reverse any decree or karma. So, which is it? Let the Light decide, or never give up? The answer is: both.”
— Yehuda Berg
“Canoe and Tree” | Anthony Satori
“To have faith is to trust yourself to the water. When you swim you don’t grab hold of the water, because if you do you will sink and drown. Instead you relax, and float.”
— Alan Watts
“Hidden Road” | Anthony Satori
Art finds its voice in the realm of pure meaning. It has the ability to transcend words, often absolving us of the need for them entirely. A work of art is an expression that flows directly from the artist’s spirit and then, with equal veracity, into the spirit of the receptive viewer.
“The Spiritual Dimension” | Anthony Satori
“It is through gratitude for the present moment that the spiritual dimension of life opens up.”
— Eckhart Tolle
“Water Droplets in Sunlight” | Anthony Satori
“Why hurry over beautiful things? Why not linger and enjoy them?”
— Clara Schumann
“Red, White and Blue” | Anthony Satori
Feel gratitude, spread love, seek light, embrace life. And let us not forget the virtue of courage, for without it there is no preservation of liberty.
