My Art
Lit Chakras
In one split moment -- when physical, emotional and spiritual energies align --a small bit of our world may become a brilliant singularity,
In this work...
... the physical (acrylic paint on canvas)…
... the emotional ( light energy)…
--- the spiritual (the seven chakras)…
merge to interpret a balance in the flow of universal energy.

Here Be Dragons
The dragons indeed appeared to be all but gone. Extinction by disbelief. The last pair of mighty beasts would have to be extremely old -- but if they still existed, were they perhaps breeding? I looked around for signs of a nest. Not knowing what to look for, I wandered aimlessly, looking in trees, in caves, on rock ourcroppings.... and then I saw them. perched atop a craggy cliff, they craned their necks downward and peered back at me.

Dos Corazones
My heart need not match yours in measure
To feel this, our own perfect fit.
Heart vows to you always to treasure
the love you have forged into it.
Each moment our hearts stay connected
Does heighten our serenity.
Soul slip'd into soul has perfected
Sweet calmness of infinity.

Carpe Luna
Toss a frail moon overhead
Just out of my reach.
I will stretch and strain and strive
To gather it back in.
I'll not succeed nor yet concede
To let it slip away
But rather build a tower fair
That pierces the dark sky.
Inside will set a staircase high
To gain the lunar orb.
A host of master carpenters
And masons strong and swift
I hire to raise this edifice
That I may grasp my dream.
Or
Perhaps I'll lie on the grass tonight
And let the moon be free.

Eddie Rains
Twanging vibrations jangle nerve endings
guitar cries the tune, fists pound the rhythm,
heart screams a lyric fromm a pain born long ago.
lalalala
lyrics splashing into my ears like soft raindrops splashing into my eyes
Ommmmmmm
Chanting a chorus

Duck Lake: Autumn
The upper peninsula of Michigan hides hidden treasure. Glacial melting left moraines, eskers , drumlins and grooves.. There are many small lakes and streams -- not so great as the Great Lakes and the mighty Mississippi -- but each with its own beauty. Duck lake, on the outskirts of Shakey Lakes in the southern part of the peninsula, is a pretty little spot. Lake, forest and camp coexist in harmony here. I am blessed to have access to this small bit of serenity.

Flameout
Crossing the stream, I could see the sign more clearly. It read :"Here Be Dragons!" but "Be" had been crossed out, and "Were" had been scratched over it into the weather-worn plank. A ponderous sadness fell across my shoulders causing me to droop and sag. Surely not all the dragons had gone. One hearty creature must still terrorize the skies, bellowing flame-filled roars and scorching treetops . Where had they gone? What horrid disaster had befallen these magnificent monsters? I walked deeper into the forest, scanning for the slightest hint as to the fate of the dragons.

Winter Quietus
Frozen ponds-- her icicle blue eyes
Mirror the frigid blue of her northern sky.
Powdery snows -- her translucent skin
Barely conceal her river's pulsing currents.
Waves of the aurora-- her shimmering hair
Cascade down to her broad shouldered mountains.
She is Winter.
She is Death.
Unforgiving.

Invisible Avenue
Angry windows.
Cold street lamps.
Distant doorways.
Fill this town which loathes me.
You will Rain on me.
You will Snow on me.
You are the Keeper
Of those deep heart secrets.
You look through me.
I am bent.
I am translucent.
I am spun glass.
I walk your street.
You soak my feet
And stalk my fear.
And laugh at me when I roar.

Hand Aura
It is believed that a blue aura symbolizes balance and intuition.
It is believed that a blue-green aura indicates healing skills.
The eye sees what is wishes to see, and perception of an object or event will differ in many ways.
Do you see blue or aqua?
Or do you just see a pair of hands?
Are the hands holding sparks?
Or are they creating them?
