🕸️ Spiderweb — Connection In Robert Collado's Día de los Muertos artwork, the spiderweb symbolism poignantly reflects the ongoing connection between family, ancestors, generations, and the relationship between the living and the dead. ROBERT COLLADO - “IF NO ONE LOVES YOU ❤️ ROBERT LOVES YOU”

This was the day I received the Heart Affirmation. It was a Sunday morning and I went out for a Bike ride “Suited and Booted” in my Sunday best attire, to take a ride to the local coffee shop as I was there in line a Man with long grey hair no beard wearing a black trench coat and on his sleeves he had written the entire length in big white letters.
“ LOVE” and as he paid and moved the other side of the coat said “Compassion” there might have been more writing but those words stood out. I remember making eye contact with him and I said “Nice jacket” he turned and said “Your Jacket is nice too” I can’t tell you his name but we spoke for 2hrs about everything especially Art. I explained myself and why I felt why I do Metal Artwork. We exchanged phone numbers to possibly continue the conversation, but never hooked up I actually called him when I had made a piece for him I wanted to bless him with. A simple design. Of course a Heart ❤ with a handle which I was gonna add a tab so he can sling it over. I still have that piece sitting in the corner as a reminder of that day. After we went our separate ways I was on my way home as I pulled up to my house I got to the gate to unlock it as I look forward I see (2) Hearts in the sky that had to been a airplane sky writing over my shop. He mentioned how he would put his work up in public view and some he said have been up for more than (5) years. Dear friend I hope all is well and I will see you on this side or the other. Thank you for the Inspiration.
THE SPIDER WEB 🕸️ My Godfather had asked if I could pick up a Fridgerator for my Aunt how wanted me to get it since I had a truck. My Godfather blessed me with (2) important tools that would shape my Life… to be continued

We will call him the Man with Compassion, I liked that he sparked an idea in me to put my work in public view what lead up to my art installation is attributed to him as my eldest Son.

Harrison Mayes was a Kentucky coal miner who devoted much of his life to spreading a Christian message of faith and redemption after a Coal mine accident left him trapped and fighting for his life. With Death around the corner he prayed and asked God to spare his life, in doing so God did save Mr. Mayes and once he was rescued he dedicated his life in service to God. Beginning in the early 20th century, Mayes painted religious signs, constructed large concrete crosses and placed messages along highways where travelers could see them. He also sent thousands of religious messages in bottles across the seas, hoping they would reach people around the world. Some of his concrete crosses stood approximately 12–15 feet tall and could weigh as much as 1,800 pounds. His unusual combination of coal mining, handmade monuments and roadside evangelism created a distinctive piece of American religious and roadside history.
