Not the Gardener (Easter painting)
Hyatt Moore is an accomplished artist, and has been an acquaintance for decades. Here's one of his newest masterpieces, after his comments:
A pastor friend suggested I paint Jesus after his resurrection. “How would I do that?” I asked. He said, “Maybe in the garden.” So I did, the moment Mary encountered him. Never expecting, she thought he was the gardener . . . until he said her name. That's the moment I painted.
I call it, “Not the Gardener."

Semana Santa Spain
Semana Santa is observed annually in Spain during the week immediately before Easter and this year it takes place from April 2 to 9. Also known as Holy Week, Semana Santa is observed by Catholics to commemorate the Passion of Jesus Christ, his suffering, and death on the cross. Throughout the week, religious brotherhoods and fraternities carry out penance processions through the streets of almost every Spanish city and town. These activities attract visitors from outside Spain and are often advertised in hand guides and international fairs.
History of Semana Santa Spain
Semana Santa commemorates the Passion of Christ, that is, the suffering of Jesus before his crucifixion. The term ‘passion’ derives from the Latin verb ‘patior’ or ‘passus sum,’ meaning to ‘endure,’ ‘suffer,’ or ‘bear.’ In Catholic tradition, this often refers to specific events from the Christian Bible, such as the ‘Triumphant Entry’ of Jesus into Jerusalem. He rode into Jerusalem on the foal of a donkey, and as he did, the people greeted him as the Jewish Messiah, the ‘Son of David.’
When he arrived, he went into the Jerusalem temple and expelled the money changers who were doing business there. Later, Jesus and his disciples shared a meal known as the ‘Last Supper,’ from where Judas Iscariot left to betray Jesus to the religious leaders of Israel. Another important event was Jesus’ prayer in the Garden of Gethsemane, where he prayed until his sweat became like drops of blood. Immediately after this, he was arrested and put on trial, then unjustly declared guilty. Jesus was subsequently crucified, but after three days, he rose again.
Religious brotherhoods and fraternities hold penance processions through the streets of Spain during Holy Week. The participants or brothers typically use conical hooded penitent gowns to conceal their faces. They wear shackles on their feet and carry wooden crosses or candles. The ‘pasos,’ which floats with sculptures that depict scenes from the Passion of Christ or the Sorrows of the Virgin Mary, are another fascinating aspect of the processions. Typically, marching bands, or ‘marchas procesionales’ in Spanish, accompany the floats. Holy Week in Spain is more than just a religious celebration; it also draws visitors from worldwide who come to see the processions. Typically, the processions are advertised at significant international fairs, hand guides, and on T.V.

Why We Love Semana Santa Spain
Christ paid the ultimate price
Christ touched many lives
Christ’s followers heal the world
Jesus gave himself as a sacrifice for sins, offering his life and blood. He consented to the worst kind of beating, spitting, and killing, to demonstrate selfless love to everyone who accepts him as Lord.
While on earth, Jesus left footprints in the lives of all who met him. He lifted the oppressed, healed the sick, and raised the dead. Till today, his impact on the world has not diminished.
Jesus set an example for his followers, teaching them to love enemies and do good to all. This peaceful lifestyle can be seen perpetuated by Christ’s followers in our world today, centuries after his ascension to heaven.

Margin Call Free Movie
One of my favorite movies because it accurately depicts the behind the scenes shenanigans of the 2007/2008 global financial meltdown.
How did a low budget film manage to attract such an all star cast? A phenomenal script (minus all the Fbombs) written by the son of an investment banker. JC Chandor's dad has described taking a young JC with him to the NYC trading floor to play while he worked. He always felt JC had a good sense of the business, but JC chose creative writing & film.
The entire film was shot in under a week. Most of the actors were in the middle of other projects but offered 1 day, and in some cases a few hours (Jeremy Irons, Mary McDonald) to film their scene(s).
Tells you everything you need to know about how Goldman Sachs managed to emerge from the 2007/2008 meltdown relatively unscathed.
Easter Egg Alert- Tuld played by Jeremy Irons picks up a tiny lion while speaking with actress Demi Moore. 🦁
Follow the YouTube link to view the film for free.
"When an entry-level analyst unlocks information that could prove to be the downfall of the firm, employees must weigh whether to save their own company (and their jobs) at the risk of fleecing millions of investors."

Some clips from Margin Call¹ can be viewed without YT like the "Senior Partners Mtg." Academy Award winner Jeremy Irons arrived in NYC, drove to set and nailed his performance without a rehearsal!

PRAISE FOR Dreams of the Floating House by Karen Sandberg
Dreams of the Floating House is a waltz in summer time, holding the breath of the world. It invites one to join the poet’s life-journey of search, becoming, and overcoming. “Days float past like clouds,” days (and poems) of water, wind, darkness, loss, trees, and butterflies. The sun always comes out.
–Karen Herseth Wee, author of The Book of Hearts – Finalist, Mn Book Awards 1994 “Portent” Poet Artist Collaboration, 20th Annual, Red Wing, Mn. 2021 chapbook
Very occasionally one perceives in a book of poems the clear outline of a life lived with integrity and feeling. Karen Sandberg‘s Dreams of the Floating House is that kind of book. A sense of time passing richly informs Sandberg’s spare, elegant poems: “We have time. We have no time. Time is all we have.” Her generous poems of generational succession are especially lovely. Readers will want to return often to the intimate space Sandberg shares with us in her poem-house that seems to float on the dream of life itself.
–Thomas R. Smith, author of Medicine Year and Storm Island
Praise to Karen Sandberg for the expansiveness of her debut collection, Dreams of the Floating House. Grouped in five sections, the poems are grounded in her childhood in a hand-built house on Lake Superior. Other sections open out through adult nightmares of memory and loss of my home shelter/my ark. Hope takes her through the despair of an abusive marriage in No One Needs to Know, a list poem revealing how fear drove me to strength. Poems that celebrate the flowering of new love carry, too, the shadow of loss and death. In the final section, Sandberg, grown-up nurse and independent mother to two sons, assembles a bouquet of poems celebrating freedom, the return of trust and her ability to love. It is her poetic prowess that guides the reader through these shifting life events and changing emotional states.

A Review of 'Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse' (2023)
Tumblr media
Damn, now this movie is entertaining to watch with utmost certainty. I considered the first installment a gem that could not be matched. But here I am after viewing the second movie with the unexpected knowledge there will be a third movie on the horizon. Into, Across, and Beyond the Spider-verse! This movie’s complex blend of animation styles can be information overload and possibly seizure-inducing for those with a photosensitivity impairment. My gosh! It is fascinating how they combined all the visual extremes into one movie. I am surprised it did not give me a headache while I tried to keep pace with the speed of processing all the information at once. It was mind-boggling to see them integrate live-action into an animated film. The last time I remember seeing it be used seamlessly was during the Bronze Age of Disney when the studio blended live-action and animation into their movies, such as with Mary Poppins and Bedknobs & Broomsticks. I thoroughly enjoyed this movie and look forward to the third installment.
As previously stated, this film is a direct continuation of the highly praised Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse (2018). The lead character, Miles Morales, returns as the protagonist, joined by a fresh set of heroes from alternate dimensions. The film is helmed by directors Joaquim Dos Santos and Kemp Powers, and penned by Phil Lord and Christopher Miller, the creative forces behind the original movie.
This film boldly depicts Miles' ongoing struggle to balance his dual identities as a high schooler and a superhero, all while confronting a looming danger that threatens to unravel the fabric of the multiverse. With the abundance of thrilling action, clever humor, heartfelt emotion, and breathtaking animation, this movie will surely leave a lasting impression.
This movie was fantastic! It exceeded all of my expectations and left me thoroughly impressed. The animation style was especially noteworthy, as it merged various techniques and genres to produce a stunning visual masterpiece. The voice acting was also top-notch, with Shameik Moore and Hailee Steinfeld delivering standout performances as Miles Morales and Spider-Gwen, respectively. The supporting cast of heroes is excellently portrayed and fleshed out, each with its distinct personality and backstory. Fans of the Spider-Man franchise will appreciate the nods to various comics and movies, as the film cleverly incorporates references and Easter eggs throughout.
The film showcases a considerable amount of emotional depth and character growth. Miles, the protagonist, is both relatable and endearing. He encounters challenges and uncertainties that most people can empathize with. Through his journey, he discovers how to trust himself and his companions and accept his role as Spider-Man. The movie delves into the various topics of family, friendship, accountability, inclusivity, and bravery. It doesn’t shy away from addressing heavy subject matter yet maintains a balanced tone with humor, optimism, and entertainment.
Spider-Man Across the Universe (2023) is hands down one of the best movies I’ve seen at the cinema this year. The remarkable animation and captivating storyline will impress anyone who appreciates superheroes or simply great films. I highly recommend it without hesitation.
