My Digital Doodle board is filling up so maybe it’s time to move on to focus on another project. I’m kinda thinking about doing some illustration-type artsy stuff similar to the above. Starting out, it will primarily be from the … Continue reading Another Idea…
I took the original picture on which this one was based many years ago. It was taken in a museum in Des Moines Iowa. I love how form and function can merge so comfortably when it is done by the … Continue reading MME90 – The Most Memorable
If you have any interest in the history of the U.S., you must visit Henry Ford’s Greenfield Village in Dearborn Michigan. There are hundreds of buildings that Ford kidnapped from across the country depicting our early days including the original … Continue reading MME51 – Greenfield Village Facade
One of the best things I discovered in my four years living in New Jersey was diners. This was my favorite one. It was located in Freehold NJ. Except for the diner just down the road from our house, this … Continue reading MME57 – NJ Diner
Like Superman, I need my Fortress of Solitude. I need a place where I can live life on my own (LOMO) for whatever time I have left on this earth. After four years of trying to create it, I think it is finally done. Continue reading My Fortress Of Solitude
Clothesline Art is primarily made up of two distinct things. They are pictures of things we see in daily life but don’t draw our attention. The second category is pictures that were taken and then modified is various ways. Sometimes it is one or the other, and others it is a combination of both. Continue reading MME63 – Red Beauty
I will admit here that my avatar here at RJsCorner is about 26 years old. It was taken in 2000 on my wife’s sixtieth birthday. When I recently sent it through one of my “MyMindsEye” apps it made the shoreline … Continue reading MME68 – RJC Avatar Rekindled
Several times a year I change the focus of RJsCorner to a new subject. It is presently about being artsy. Starting today is will be about diversity. Continue reading A New Focus…
I certainly enjoy MyArtsySide here at RJsCorner, but I am finding those things for the most part to be entertaining but not mentally challenging. I need additional things to help me live my life mantra of Think For Yourself, Question … Continue reading The Synergy Of A Doodle & A Quote…

The origin of this image was taken in 2007 when I was visiting the Great Salt Lake in Utah. I was overwhelmed by the surroundings. Yes, I did taste the water and it was VERY salty. Continue reading MME1 – At The SaltLake
While living in New Jersey in 1998, we took a trip through the Fingerlakes region of New York. This picture was taken at the Glenora Winery. It was just opening and was a fabulous place. I will always love this … Continue reading MME47 – The FingerLakes
I am in a reminiscing mood today, especially about all the critters I have had in my life. When we lived in the homestead surrounded by forests for 21 years, there were countless critters who constantly showed up at our backdoor. Continue reading MME70 – I Miss My Critters
Being deaf for 35 years now, I usually don’t pay much attention to musical presentations here at my RetCom (retirement community). But this last April there was one that I attended. It was an African Drums Presentation. Drums are one … Continue reading MME58 – RetCom Drums
In the last 15 years I have probably been to at least 40 museums. Some were locals that were usually in a once abandoned building. Others were the million dollar version, where each room proudly displayed the name of a … Continue reading MME10 – Creative Lighting
RJsCorner has been about several different things throughout its 17-year history. I truly believe that it has finally evolved into its true purpose, and that is:
Having My Say — Life on the Margins — My Artsy Side
Let’s look at these three topics Continue reading RJsCorner – The Final Frontier
I managed to get through twenty years of my work life without cubicles. But then it had to happen. When my job was moved from Indiana to New Jersey in 1996 I went with it. I really didn’t have a … Continue reading Cocoons
This is one of my top ten artsy pictures from photos. I know the movie The Bridges of Madison County is considered on of the top movies of its time, but in my mind bridges of Parke County, Indiana, certainly … Continue reading MME38 – Top 10 Favorites…
