Western Spring


No frills, just moderating temperatures, mountain runoff and dryness.

Marshland


Utah Lake has it's share of swampy areas. In the spring there is a cool clarity to the air and plants around the lake.  It has a wonderful ancient illuminated quality.

Backyard, Utah

Backyards have their own qualities, and while I think that my backyard in Florida is the most magical of all backyards, I have to admit that my backyard in Utah has its own special qualities. The richness of color, and the garden create a joyful, private space but at night all that changes.

Juniper Springs

Florida is full of pristine cold water springs that connect to deep underground aquifers. They often disappear into blue blackness and the dense space of underwater caves. They dot the landscape like aquamarine jewels and leave their mark on the unconscious.

Mechanized Landscape


An existential glimpse into the future. The landscape is a shell of it's former self. A mechanized manmade hill.

Vision Of The Eclipse


I haven't posted a large drawing in a while. Too busy doing necessities.
The eclipse was spectacular even though where I am in Utah it wasn't total. This drawing is unfinished but seems to be about the cosmic strangeness we witnessed in the sky and over the land.

Goodbye Florida


A final goodbye to my home state. I do love it's tropical sunsets, swampy forests, and thick, damp air.

World's End


It's the space that makes the world, what would it be if we never saw a horizon.

Float


In dreams I float through space,  looking for those lost parts of myself.

Ecstatic Tree


What is ecstasy anyway?  The experience of mental transport or rapture from the contemplation of divine things.

Joy


Joy, many reasons for this. Glad to be home and see my daughter, happy to be posting again, ecstatic that I'm not driving across the country by myself with a parrot and dog anymore just to start.

Florida Memories


I will be offline for a while a week or more, and I drive to Utah. My memories of Florida will follow me there. Thanks for being patient.

Branches


There have been branches blocking the view. It's hard for the light to get through because there are so many.

Florida Melancholy


Melancholy, sadness, leaving Florida. The tropics are my natural home. Places with luminous color, rain, and the constant explosion of life.
