A video of Tennessee history. The Tennessee Theme song Rocky Top. There is so much spirit in Tennessee. Atlanta artist Corey Barksdale video about state of Tennessee. Corey Barksdale has lived in Atlanta for about 15 years and has become one of Atlanta’s premier artist. Corey Barksdale has exhibited his artwork at the Atlanta Dogwood festival, Decatur Art Festival, Virginia-Highlands Art Festival, National Black Art Festival, Atlanta Jazz Festival, Artsplosure in Raleigh North Carolina, Art Festival in Paducah, Kentucky, One of a Kind Show in Chicago, etc. Decatur, GA artist Corey Barksdale has painted for audiences in the city of Atlanta,

This video was created by Atlanta & Decatur Fine Artist Corey Barksdale. Please visit Corey’s website. http://www.coreybarksdale.com/

The song was written by a married couple, songwriters Felice and Boudleaux Bryant. They wrote “Rocky Top” in only ten minutes in 1967. The Bryants were working in Gatlinburg on a collection of slow-tempo songs for a project for Archie Campbell and Chet Atkins. Writing the fast-paced “Rocky Top” served as a temporary diversion for them. Recorded by the Osborne Brothers in 1967, the song was a top 40 hit on the country music charts in early 1968.

Although a staple of their concerts, the song did not achieve mass popularity until Lynn Anderson had a hit with it in 1970, and when the “Pride of the Southland” University of Tennessee marching band used it for one of their drills in 1972. The song was very popular and was officially adopted as a state song in 1982. In the 1970s, the song achieved such popularity among bar crowds that the Chapel Hill, North Carolina, old-time band the Red Clay Ramblers [1] national tours included a crowd-pleasing satire informally titled “Play ‘Rocky Top’ (or I’ll Punch Your Lights Out.)”[2]

The original “Rocky Top” song describes a place called Rocky Top, Tennessee, which is one of the three peaks of Thunderhead Mountain in Tennessee (located in the Smoky Mountains) in the eastern part of the state. The peak is actually located along the border between Tennessee and North Carolina.[3][4]

Despite its fast and upbeat tempo, the song’s first verse is actually a lament over a failed love affair and a vanishing way of life. The song’s second verse is an ode to two apparent revenuers and the illegal production of alcoholic beverages by moonshining, with a reference to “looking for a moonshine still.” These are all common country music themes. With its good-natured regional references to a carefree lifestyle, the singing of “Rocky Top” by Tennessee college students and alumni at sports venues such as Neyland Stadium is well established. The University of Tennessee has been granted a perpetual license to play the song as much and as often as success on the field dictates by the copyright holders, House of Bryant.

Contrary to popular belief, “Rocky Top” is not UT’s official fight song, although it is so closely identified with the university that many believe this to be the case. UT’s official fight song is a radically different tune called “Here’s To Old Tennessee”, adapted from the Yale University fight song “Down the Field”.

“Operation Rocky Top” was the FBI’s code name for a public corruption investigation into the Tennessee state government in the late 1980s which resulted in the eventual suicide of the Tennessee Secretary of State, Gentry Crowell, and the incarceration of several other individuals, most notably state House Majority Leader Tommy Burnette. The focus of the investigation was the illegal sale of bingo licenses.

The jam band Phish played “Rocky Top” regularly from 1987 to 2003. There have been additional cover versions of the song by such country music artists as Dolly Parton, Conway Twitty, and Billie Jo Spears. It can also be known as the official fight song of David Webb, a noted band director in Central Virginia at Jefferson Forest High.

Camille Pissarro (1830 – 1903)

“Painting, art in general, enchants me. It is my life. What else matters? When you put all your soul into a work, all that is noble in you, you cannot fail to find a kindred soul who understands you, and you do not need a host of such spirits. Is not that all an artist should wish for”? (Camille Pissarro)

Pissarro was born in 1830 in St. Thomas, the West Indies. In 1841 he was sent to school in Paris where he created his first drawings. By 1847 he returned to St. Thomas to work for his father which he did not like and consequently ran away to Caracas, Venezuela, for 2 years to paint. His first pictures were West Indian scenes in an – Oriental Style -. In 1855 his father finally allowed him to study art in Paris. He became friends with Monet, Cezanne and Guillaumin and played a key role in the development of Impressionism. He was the only artist to show in all 8 of the Impressionist exhibitions. For him Impressionism was a movement which allowed artistic emancipation. He believed strongly in free thought and speech. Before he introduced figures into his work in 1880, giving them a more decorative character, his paintings resembled most those of Monet. Later on Pissarro was attracted to Seurat’s Pointillism and saw it as a logical development of Impressionism. He adopted Seurat’s techniques but with limited success. Camille Pissarro was born in the West Indies, but studied in Paris under Corot. He also studied with Monet at the Academie Suisse, who encouraged him to join the Impressionists. Both Monet and Pissarro lived in London from 1870 to 1871 to avoid the Franco-Prussian War. From 1885-1888, Pissarro explored the divisionism technique of Neoimpressionist, Seurat, before returning to his original style. Confined indoors because of his failing eyesight, Pissarro painted views of Rouen and Paris from 1896 to his death.

After an inspiring residency working with Darren Almond and a very successful exhibition, artist Johnnie Lawson, presents his work.
This body of work, consists of a collection of paintings (In The Between) and two Still Videos (Notions of Silence 1 & 2). Within these I am searching for a meditative silence and a contemplative stillness. Paired down to a visual minimum this work has been partly inspired by writings such as The Tibetan Book of the Dead, originally put into words in the 8th century by Padma Sambhava, and The Dancing Wu Li Masters by Gary Zukav.
The point of reference for my paintings has been that time when day has ceased to be but has not yet become the black of night. Within the encroaching darkness there is the appearance of nothing and the supposition of everything. So it is with paint, all colours are held within black.

As a fine artist that paints mostly about concepts of psychological disorders I don’t usually run out and make prints of my paintings. I’m far from a commercial artist. But I had an exciting opportunity to show my work — in a big way — in California. So the most timely and efficient way to get my paintings out to Laguna Beach was to scan the original art here in Pennsylvania, and then FTP digital versions of the artwork to CA to be printed.

This video shows the actual unraveling of two of the pieces after delivery, and the first time I ever saw prints of my paintings!
