ART ON FIRST: An Artful Life, Solo Exhibition John Palombo
Monday, March 31 - Monday, April 28, 12:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. Opening Reception: Friday, April 4, 5:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.
Currently featured at ART on FIRST are nature inspired paintings by John Palombo. With just enough challenges growing up to gain some deep colors and spectrums in his life, John has made use of the follies and torture of being human and turned them into joy and happiness by finding something that truly speaks to his soul - visiting remote natural areas and painting. John loves color and creating color. His focus has always been on landscapes of Southern Oregon, particularly Southeastern Oregon. When creating a composition, John's interest is to translate the magic that he sees in the world and in nature onto his surface. With this, he hopes to inspire his viewers to find the same magic, or something that is personal to just them.

Thursdays 6:00 - 7:00 pmIn-person and via ZoomCalm Abiding MeditationThis meditation is common to many traditions of Buddhism. In this practice, we rest our attention on a simple meditative support, such as the breath. Instead of following thoughts and emotions as we usually do, we release them and maintain our connection to the support.
鈥淔rom this practice, we can experience a stable and calm mind. We learn to maintain and return to a sense of stillness, no matter what our outer circumstances. The mind is relaxed, alert and aware. The results of this practice are serenity, freedom in the face of circumstances, and ultimately Buddhahood.鈥
From Meditation for Beginners, by Bokar Rinpoche.
