After The Firestorm

The charred land is still and waits.

Dog Treat II

The swath of destruction continues. Let animals loose on a landscape and see what happens.

Dog Treat

My dog helped on this one. It was a completed piece that she chewed beyond recognition. I had to reassemble it again in it's new resurrected form.  You can almost see a dog leaning in for a bite from the top.

Fog

Remembering the Big Sur coast.

Flood

Despite the rush of water the flowers hold their ground.

River Storm

This is my first wax and mixed media drawing. The wax sheen gives it a nice surface.

Portal

I have often wanted to take that step through the "doors of perception" into another world.

Face

Eternity has a face. Exactly what that means is hard to say.

The World of Two II

The world is torn in half. Two of everything.

The World of Two I

In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

The World of One

In the world of one, everything else is mute.

River Storm II

This is the new improved version. I turned it upside down and did a revision.

Saturn Devouring His Son

The Greek myth goes like this;  Saturn, king of the Titans, fearing a prophecy that he would be overthrown by his children, ate each one upon their birth. It would seem that absolute power devours everything in its path and leaves nothing to posterity.

Red Pond

Every garden should have one.  That bright spot of color right by the broccoli.

High Water

"High water rising, rising night and day. All the gold and silver being stolen away. It's tough out there, high water everywhere."

Anxiety In The Garden

Feeling is rooted in the ground.  We all share it.

Premonition

There is an intruder in the garden and all the living things are still.

Hidden Tree

Up on the cliff away from the view, rooted in the hard ground, leafless.

Night and Day

Brain Storm

Garden Buddha. Keeper of the garden space.

Dawn over the bowl of the earth.

Night Vision.

Dark Day with wind and drizzle.

Last Tree Standing

Today is officially the end of my sabbatical as I head off to Esalen for a week. There will be no new posts until I get back. At that point I will continue my daily paintings as I have this past year.  Thanks to those of you that have regularly followed this blog.
