Painting

Show Time

Time to bring the paintings of 2022 into the light. The above is Shine, painted in the time of candles as we approached the Solstice this December.

An old favorite, Dreaming of Change, with a couple of new paintings that started life as the unintended images found in Pareidolia.

Keeping Watch

In the Midst

In and Out of the Storm, Remembering the Body Suit, and Shamanic Beings.

Penetrating and Seed Bearer

Stepping Out, Seeker, and The Who Came Out of the Blue

It’s been an unexpected pleasure, as well as sticking to a discipline, of going with the unintended images that came forth as I prepped my canvases with color. No wonder Leonardo da Vinci recommended the Art of Pareidolia to jumpstart creativity.

The Show is On

I like the formality of a show.

The design of the show.

The mating of the groups and pairs.

To question “is this art”? To know that this is art.

Black on Black 2 calls to mind waterlilies in the dark.

I once or twice restrained myself from licking a brushstroke on Monet’s waterlilies. In fact, I had to walk away.

Conception

It’s meditative to be on the walls, with Dreaming of Change.

The Question of Selkie’s Longing

Her Cape Awaiting

Which Way To Be

Currently showing at Subway Gallery

43 Brewery Avenue, Bisbee Arizona

January 8th through February 6th, 2022

The Question of Selkie’s Longing

There once was a seal

Who was caught sunbathing

Without her Cape of Seal Skin

She became captive to a foreign reality

Of children and earthen pleasures

A child offspring

Found the hidden once discarded

Cloak

Offering it up to the mother of desires

Who leaped with recognition

Into who she once was

Yet encountering longing

For sea and turf

It is the Longing

That defines the days
