I Am Love, You Are Loved
Stephanie reminded me of this revelation and revolution
This love is being sent out in peaceful vibrations
From my heart to the multitudes
We provide love to receive the love we need
Love remains, fear fades, optimism evades
Love feeds this emptiness, and persuades nothingness
Opens the door for gratitude like she needs chivalry
The days of damsels in distress have passed
Gratitude put on her best dress just for the occasion
She always looked good in tie-dye and anklet bells
Because gratitude even works in jail cells of self-imposed hells
She rings the living bells
Gratitude walks a mile in my shoes
If we know it’s a gift to be simple and come down where we ought to be
In the valley of love and delight
All religions give orders to do unto others, love ourselves and our neighbors
When we think we are saved but do not follow orders
We have been very unkind to each other
We are very naive to believe that gods and goddesses
Would be prejudice, like the separatist that divide us
Love shall overcome when we are aware
Radical acceptance of love
Without all the jaded conditions
When we all need unconditional love
Love motivated the masses enough to see humanity here

David Michael Boyd – GuitARTist
I use the word “GuitARTist” to attempt to describe my paradigm for playing the guitar and making music in performance settings. The idea is that other creative elements can be added to playing and singing songs, such as visual art and storytelling. I also repair and build guitars, which adds another dimension of creativity to what I do as the guitars themselves become a work of art on display. They are art that can make art.
The best expression of all of this is my multi-media performance that utilizes 5 to 8 guitars, and tells their stories against a backdrop of poetry and visual art. On a simpler scale, I do instrumental guitar shows, can bring a blues band, and also love to share music that has been written in workshops with incarcerated individuals in Colorado.
I refer you to bluesbehindbars.org for more information about working behind bars (a Colorado 501c3 non-profit). You can see some examples of music on youtube at:
https://youtu.be/w5OMg0c8CZU - original instrumental piece “Dance of the Russian Crow”
https://youtu.be/oqDIoPpgmAo - classical guitar piece, “Estrellita”
https://youtu.be/DxETXA3Zx3k - Blues Behind Bars Band mini-concert
In 2023 I’d like to get out and play more, open to collaboration at show openings, solo or band shows and opportunities to bring the guitar show! Contact info: davidmichaelboyd@gmail.com

Deb Stanger
My passion for the beauty of art started when I was very young. I could spend hours drawing in my bedroom and imagining what to create next. My mother was a saint for letting me use her plates for paint palettes and the mixer to mix paste paper. As I grew older, my intense desire to always be creating just grew. I admired both of my Grandmothers who were artists in their own right. My Grandma Dauenbaugh did leather tooling and wove beautiful rugs which she sold. My Grandma Hayes was an intricate china painter. I could stand for hours staring in the china cabinet at each beautiful hand painted piece.
I followed my calling and became an art teacher where the love of art and importance of art in everyone’s life was made apparent. I am grateful for what I learned about art and about people in those years of teaching. I will always be an advocate for the arts in all schools.
Today I am a full time artist where each day I have the privilege of painting. My art is continually evolving, just as I am as a person. Each day brings new beginnings, new hope, and new vision. Much of my art is inspired by the great outdoors and its landscapes and the love I have for animals big and small. My work is an ongoing reflection of new growth as it portrays my life experiences and dreams.
I love it that my paintings have been described as “boldly beautiful”. Color makes me happy and brings me joy. My wish is that my art transports the viewer to a place of peace and joy.
