Where's the weirdest place you ever found a Peace Sign?

Where's the most interesting place you ever put a Peace Sign?

Hey! We think this is a Minnestota license plate? We love that peace is being passed around the 10,000 Lakes of Senator Al Franken's state :) We wonder what Congress Gal Michelle Bachman thinks of this if she sees it tho...yikes!

So...maybe we should shoot for a Peace Car in Each of the 50 States! We have one from Ohio I know, here on the blog...now Minnestota...we think Minnesota...

Who's next? Add your Peace Car and the State it's from...we'll do that for a blog theme! Pass it on!

Daisy Peace!

Wow Says We! It's Daisy Peace!

Great photo first off...you can feel the velvet of the leaves in the fade-into-blackness of it, and the depth makes you wanna touch the texture of it.

And then there's the Peace of it...subtle, wrapped in petals, frosted with pollen. A touch of spring on this the day when (at least lots of us) "lose an hour", or at least misplace it until we get used to the not having of it in the proper place.

In honor of Spring, and in honor of "Pi Day" 3.14 :)

Thanks for the flower and thanks for the peace!

Sharpie Peace

So...say you're driving down some street in Ohio and you see a white care all covered with Peace and Love doodles...drawn in Black Sharpie! Would you smile? We would :)

Ohioangurl took this about six months ago we think, and the Peace of Art wasn't finished yet...but there were about 40 hours of work in it. So...is it done yet?! We see Mario Mushrooms too...and dig the stars...but wonder How Many Peace Signs are on the final project?

Oh, the Peace you can spread with a Black Sharpie and a little imagination!

Send your Black Sharpie Peace pieces to the Flickr One Million Peace Signs photo pool!! How many are out there?!?! Different colored sharpie peace of course welcome too...

Pass it on!

Peace Wreath with VW

Peace, originally uploaded by OC Always.

Very nice find OC Always! Summer of Love VW bus with a Peace Wreath for a Spare...and what's with that monkey (?) hang-dangling from the mirror? If you squinch your eyes right, you can make his body be another peace sign, with the ^ of the windshield wiper sort of extending out...ok, yer right...I'm "stretching"...stretching for peace...and proud of it!

Looking at the Peace Pix here on the blog I see myself gravitating toward People Peace...this is a great reminder that you can stick Peace Signs all over the everywhere...could call this one "Driving Peace" or.... Areatha Peace (A-Wreatha Peace...get it?)

OKAY! Stretching...yeah...well...that'd be me. Passing Peace to Everyone Who Reads This and tossing a Peace Frisbee to OC Always for this quite groovy pic!

peace, originally uploaded by lullittoosleep.

We like peace...all kinds of peace...'specially peace that sneaks up out of a seeming nowhere and grabs you by the eyes or ears or heart. Thanks lullitoosleep! Where'd you take this?

There's some cool story here...what is it?

Option One: The lady with the hidden smile (see those grin lines?) knows that the pic is being taken, so she's peace-ing the pic taker. The guy in the cap is doing a full two-arm-hold-you-tight hug...and in my story he's unaware of the pic taker. He hasn't seen the lady in a long time...maybe he's never met her...a long-lost someone special one way or t'other. Smiling lady broght the pic taker along and the Peace Sign says "thanks for the support...it's all good."

And they go out for coffee and bagels, (he gets sesame seed, extra cream cheese she gets cinn-raisin with at schmear, toasted) and talk and talk and talk.

That's mine. Yours?

Worth Repeating

Worth Repeating, originally uploaded by evelyndesigns.

Peace is way worth repeating...let's see, how did this work? evelyndesigns says she was inspired by the hat and scarf set from azhippiechick...looking on flickr, azhippiechick did the invite to evelyndesigns, to get this pic posted to the pool...I'm watching the chicken mango enchiladas I have cooking for the weboing gang, who are working overtime on something or another...figgered I'd tune into the OMPS blog...saw this little piece of peace and how could I not blog it!?!?

Worth repeating, to say the least :P Thank you to all who had a part in getting this li'l peacenik up on the blog and out in the world. May she inspire much peace, and get folks repeating it.

Chicken Mango Enchiladas anyone? They're extra spicy...gotta keep the gurus going until late!

Peace,

Wet Peace

Wet Peace, originally uploaded by mtsofan.

We pass this peace on to all,
sitting in a room with orange on every wall.

Guess this one should go on www.onemillionpeacepoems.com which we're getting up there soon :)

White walls...may the house sell to someone who goes in there with a bucket of orange paint! Thanks for thinking of OMPS and adding this to the pool.

What I really wanna say is, what a nice parent to go fill up the car for the kid to go visit his friend! That is one heckuva deal :) Must be a good kid...he cleaned up.

Isn't it just way cool that when presented with a blank wall and a paintbrush and a bucket of paint, this kid decided to draw a Peace Sign!?!? I think it is. We smile at this Random Sign of Peace.

Where's the weirdest place you ever found a Random Sign of Peace?

What a very cool piece of peace! Thanks Mis Nicole, for sharing this one. Please do drive carefully :)

Peace isn't always "black and white"... or is it?

There's a question for you! Is Peace black and white?

DrippingBlossoms of Peace...with a Mona Lisa Smile...and sunshine...there's sunshine there too, wherever "there" is...Where's There drippingblossoms?

We toss back a peace frisbee to you and yours. Our "there" is Wyoming...sunshine trying to (peacefully) melt away a layer of the ten inches of white stuff that (peacefully) fell in the last 24 (peaceful) hours.

Everyone toss someone a Peace Frisbee today! Soak it in sunshine if you have some around...Pass on some Peace today...invite someone to the blog...take a peace pic...pass it on. Lather, Rinse, Repeat.

Random Peace

We dig Caden's Randomosity :) Peace in neutral, in black and white, the "eyes" have it...Peace comes with black fingernails and hugs the curve of a brow...

Peace with a dare...no smile. There aren't a lot of Peace Pix that don't come with a smile...hmmm...howcomethatis?

Do you have a non-smiling Peace Photo? Add it to the pool if you do...it's a different twist on the theme we all love...

Peace all...Passing it on...!

Support your local farmers

Support your local farmers, originally uploaded by robertspeg.

OK, so the light is bad, coming from the back...maybe there coulda been some cropping to manage the focus...not a lot of color...and the peace is perhaps understated.

We're blogging this Peace Pic anyway, to throw some peaceful support to local farmers! Not local to us...but local, organic, smiling folks who put food on someone's table, and spread peace in the doing of it!

Thanks to robertspeg for the pic, the peace, and the plea to support your local farmers. Only three weeks left of winter...that means Farmer's Market is almost here...ok, it's three months away, but it's getting closer! Have a salad for dinner. Hug a rabbit.Peace. Pass it on.

56/365- Some more peace..., originally uploaded by Brookelynnicole.

We call this one "Green Peace" for obvious reasons...and that green does exist in nature...we get it in the early almost-days of spring...it pops up on the pond in little polka dots...bright enough to blind you it is, when the sun hits it right. It's downright Peace Full tho, gotta say that!

This piece of peace is from Brookelynnicole...sent to OMPS via flickr on the last day of Feb. Peace backatcha, with some extra. Pass it on!

Back in the saddle we are, pushing peace. Inspired by the Peace Bloggers who keep blogging on, we're gonna go for at least one a day. It's awesome how peace keeps growing...one pic at a time.

Thanks Peace Bloggers, for keepin' on keepin' on!

Check out the OMPS widget up there on the right. If the Peace Gods are with us, you can click on "Add Widget" and add it to your own blogs and sites to keep the ol' peace pipe passing.

Thanks stripeymonkey for the groovy peace pics you added to the pool!

Peace for the New Year

noreply@blogger.com (Todd) — Fri, 01 Jan 2010 17:07:00 +0000

I have been away from the world of blogging for a bit. I've changed the name of my personal blog and am going to be sharing some new things. Not sure if I'll keep up and post daily but I am hoping to share some of my new addictions (aka sweet tooth) to several art mediums new to me and my experience in the later part of 2009. I am still keeping my hands a bit muddy with clay projects but now I find myself washing paint brushes and picking up bits of fabric and thread off the floor. I've discovered that painting can be fun, messy, frustrating, challenging and quite satisfying. I've been messing about with painting on fabric and adding other mixed media. I have found mixed media collage to be fascinating and beautiful. I've been collecting a increasingly growing stack of books on this medium. See my Shelfari selections for some of the most recent books I've been reading and loving.
The two little pieces I've pictured here are my experiments with mixed media. They measure only 2 X 2 1/2" (not including the hangers). I began with a scrap of canvas and after some paint, magazine ephemera, rusty wire and beads . . . here's what I ended up with. Some tiny peace canvases.
I hope all of you can find time to satisfy your artistic sweet tooth. I am so fortunate to have a supportive partner who encourages me to have a go at whatever might artistic eye candy I might be drooling over. I hope this New Year brings peace and great art experiences and experimentation into your life.
Namaste.
