What and where that is is not yet clear. The creative process is that summoning and the imagination is the suspension of the here to get to there. Below are the tracings of a new series of drawings that will either be called adinkra or the Fibonacci spirals, or hey maybe both.

Here is one of my early anemone fusion drawings. Yesterday they made a reappearance in the new work. I expect they wanted to share in Leap Day play!

This morning Ive been playing with the new scrolls . . . peeling off the plastic backing and watching them become more transparent and less rigid. Each progression with this new work moves my mind's eye to another view.

an onion hole from a farmer's field blown up really really BIG!

Today I'm recalling The Veil of Maya from my yoga teacher training days.

For me it felt, and still feels, as if it is the veil between worlds. Perhaps, as the string theorists tell us, it is the veil which divides dimensions.

Maybe so.

I'm pretty certain we are all connected and that we are all in this together.

It seems to me our moments of epiphany are moments when we pierce the veil and merge into a higher consciousness.
That is the place I call the spark, it is an event in consciousness where inspiration springs forth and where my work begins.

Here are images of my newest work, it is comprised of eight thangas, Buddhist scrolls, assembled into s shimmering 136" x 44" veil. It's working title is "At the Spark."

View from behind

Now that I have found a way to move my work off the wall I am mesmerized by the view from behind. This opens up a whole new way of seeing.

In the crack between the veils is one the original anemone fusion works. I love how it's all one big painting . . . on and on.

I understand their desire to create work without a preconceived notion of life. I imagine that after WWII many shared their feelings.
My art shares the idea of imagination; theirs was about the innocence of childhood and mine is more of the prophetic imaginations of poetry.
I simply love their drawings!

You really have to love this cow! Don't you?

Yesterday the nearly 60 degree weather lured me from my studio work to the outdoors.
I was again, I know I just can't stop myself, at play with my iPhone and macro lens. There's something seductive about playing at the micro (then why do they call it macro?) level.
It gives me comfort that there is an underlying structure not seen through my usual senses.
You know that green scummy stuff in ponds? Well here's what it looks like frozen - something primordial here . . . perhaps it's that instar moment when the goo became something?

Here's a peek at the dry part of my moistmedia work, the pixels.
I'm working on a magazine spread and today I move to the moist part - the egg tempera. Which is really my first love, truth be told.
More on this piece later this month.
Yesterday I got out for a glorious trail run with iPhone and Photojojo macro lens in hand. Below are a few pixs I shot of ice drops.
Now imagine them blown up to outrageous proportions! Ya that's what;s next!!
