We’re all out of bitter revenge at the moment, so it’s tea or nothing Cassandra Clare

Another addition to my “Tea in the Parlor” series. I had a remarkable time with this painting, I feel like it is a break through for me, as if I have finally freed myself of pre-conceived notions and I am painting with my heart for the first time in years. The drawing in the background of the spore like shapes really brought out a sense of play and movement.

The Religion of Art and Life

This is the second piece in my “Enter the Parlor” Series. I am just having lots of fun painting pretty flowers. I am trying to push the looseness of my hand and trying to use oil paints like gouache.

Tea in the Parlor

Playful tea roses. Ah, just a sigh of sweetness. maybe it is to counterbalance the strife from my refugee series, but I take pure delight in these whimsical roses, which I can see over- seeing a tea party in the parlor.

Know how to set a jewel of infinity in a single moment-Muriel Barbery

This beautiful little lady is all about the way shadow and light meet on a n object. I wanted to keep the airiness and suppleness on the petals. This feels like a thought, the background sketching are brain cells, and this flower blooms within their web.

Thought Process

When you picture an object in your mind, how do you SEE it? I ask lots of people to describe the experience that they have when visualizing something in their heads. Some see it two-dimensionaly; some see only descriptive words, some see three dimensions and minute detail, some see only in black and white. I am fascinated at how people see their thoughts. Some see them outside their head, some feel they are in their skulls.

Eternity itself transcending time and space- DT Suzuki

This piece is a bit of a departure for me, as I am allowing myself to listen to the paintings. Normally I would prefer a tighter control on the image, but I am trying to let the images come organically from each individual piece. I have always had a fascination with the brain and brain cells, and how it all works. This bloom is like a thought, formed by the dendrites surrounding it. It is ephemeral and not contained to our reality. It’s petals separate thoughts, taking wing in the mind.

Bursting Flower

The morning I created this piece was a glorious first Spring like day after the winter. Spring light had finally managed to find it’s way through the grey winter. It felt as if the ground was ready to pop. I wanted to burst! So I allowed myself to just play with color and brushes, and this is what emerged.
