WORKS IN PROCESS
I always have a number of works going at one time, it's just how I have to work...ADHD anyone? Sometimes they are thematically linked, sometimes not. Some make it to a finish and some stay in my mental idealand. I love process and study and ideation more than anything else, it's what I like to look at and so I thought others might also? Enjoy.
Color study for "SpaceBot" drawing, 28x22. This is one of many drawings in a series I started based on nothing, but evolved into a kinda "what will happen to our world, evolutionary speaking, when all the cheap plastic crap from Walmart gets integrated with living creatures? I call them "FleshBots" and have ambitions to build them out of latex rubber combined with parts of toys. A friend of mine says, "they are so sexual"...I was going for meaty, fleshy, strangeness, but after my friend's comment, the latex seems even more
appropriate.
I've been playing for a while with aggressive, oppressive dog images. I haven't finished anything to my satisfaction with it yet, but the motif (if not the mastiff) keeps showing up:) I think it is because I have a dog who is fear aggressive and I have learned much about aggression in dogs...and humans... from her. Also, Winston Churchill referred to his depression as "The Black Dog" and having been chased by this beast most of my life I think I am merely trying to understand it...or make peace with it or something like that. The above pieces are in marker and monoprint and below is a litho stone inspired by them that I am working on.
Gauche study on Amata paper in San Miguel Mexico. I like the study, but I wouldn't recommend working on this material...really delicate and absorbent, but also cheap and plentiful in the markets there.
The next few are a series directly inspired by my use of ayahuasca and shamanistic visioning. I am not a painter, but I have been wanting to play with more physical materials with this, so I am just trying things out.
"be it" or "the muffin man"
"aya"
crucify/transcend
Feminine Divine. Unlike the the other images shown on this page this is complete to me and is available for purchase. 4x6, 8x12,16x 24 and 30x45 limited edition prints are available. This is a very energetically infused piece. It was guided by the spirit of ayahuasca and it has embedded spiritual and healing properties. I have had...ah-hem...let's say female problems most of my life and I am using this piece to heal them. I know how it sounds, but hey you're either into it or it sounds wacko to you. Either way is cool, but I must say I like the image a lot.
This one is just for fun...a hankering for an unintellectual journey...an adventure novel:)
