Pareidolia

Seeing Faces, They’re Everywhere

Here Together, oil on canvas, 18″ x 14″

I can’t stop seeing faces in the background of brushstrokes.

The more I see, the more appear.

I can’t stop seeing faces in the asphalt as I walk to my studio.

They’re in the weave of the rugs, the towels, the walls.

I especially like them in the rock faces surrounding my mountain home.

The more I see, the more appear.

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.
