I transverse the the heavens,<br>I milk the nebulous curds, I ride the tails of comets, I fan the air to flame, I cloud the sky with moisture, I ride the currents of the wind, I kiss the earth with rain.<br>I lure the seeds to bloom, To bear fruit, to energize, to multiply.<br>I am everywhere, no time, no where, everytime. I am a numberless number, counting eternal zeros.<br>I am freedom, from freedom, peace at peace. I am the last before the new first. I am the soul of your soul, the silent watcher, yourself.\u201d ~ Ray Shevin<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-extra-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-extra-small-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Laurel Canyon &#8211; 1965 &#8211; casein on masonite &#8211; private collection This was the last painting Burt Shonberg created before his death &#8220;Atlantis&#8221; &#8211; Burt Shonberg &#8211; private collection Burt Shonberg &amp; Vincent Price on the set of \u201cThe Fall of the House of Usher\u201d &#8220;The Monster Frankenstein self portrait&#8221; &#8211; Burt Shonberg \u201cThe Lord&hellip; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/burtshonberg.com\/?page_id=2925\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Paintings<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-2925","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry","entry"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/burtshonberg.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2925","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/burtshonberg.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/burtshonberg.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/burtshonberg.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/burtshonberg.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2925"}],"version-history":[{"count":25,"href":"https:\/\/burtshonberg.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2925\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3021,"href":"https:\/\/burtshonberg.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2925\/revisions\/3021"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/burtshonberg.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2925"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
