For close to ten yers, I have made unusual curb your dog signs for our building’s gardens. I use the wisdom of others followed by my thoughts trying to pick up to pick up on the mood of the times. In the spring of 2025, our community had a great deal of trouble accepting the 2024 election. So did I. So wondering how I would handle myself, I decided the best way would be to go into a space of silence. I had to let my actions be driven by wisdom, not gut reactions. I needed the silence that would allow answers to come forth. In Signs of the Beautiful – Hearing the Silence, find my installation art project for 2025 in our gardens.

Sometimes it is hard to read our garden signs because of the glare on the protective laminate. They are better appreciated outside. So I had some fun and made the signs’ sayings into posters. Copy whatever you want. It is my hope that they may bring you direction and comfort.

The Garden – May It Inspire the Quiet We Need

Our little gardens were mirrors of larger ones. During this time of chaos, I had to pay homage to the attack on our national parks.

William Blake owns the quote. Huxley and Morrison respected silence as a means to new perceptions but they used drugs to aide them.

This sign commemorates the life of one of neighbors who passed during thee year.

This is a good quote for all of us. In the quiet, we don’t know when the change will occur. We have to be ready for it.

Experience the quite, but once you here the answers, act.
