6.1.19Reality-Distortion-48
Reality Distortion Field 48" x 36"
This painting has changed its reality a bit. I originally made it last
summer as a piece for the world premiere opera, The Revolution of Steve
Jobs. It had 2 side panels and the floating acrylic panels were silver.
I have changed them to a gold color and the painting now hangs as a
solo piece. I love to keep pushing and exploring. It is available and
is acrylic on panel.

New Work This Month
5.20.19Fly-with-Me12x12
Fly with Me 14" x 14" framed
I don't usually paint figurative work anymore but this piece was
created for my online class Awakening Your Creative Soul. In the spirit
of independent thinking this month I am proud to present my raven muse.
Years ago I painted a series of figures with birds on their heads. I
think I may revisit this idea so stay tuned for more figurative fusion
pieces. Fly with Me is available and it is framed in a black wood
floater frame.

The next online course for Awakening Your Creative Soul begins
September 6th. The online course is a 3 month mixed media adventure
that will connect your authentic voice with your creative skills. The
Season of the Autumn will include working with gold leaf, composition,
color and so much more. Here are a few comments from students.
I have learned from this course and your teaching to "look, look again,
change, change more, revise, rework, don't stop if it's just ok and
doesn't resonate with your creative idea or energy, and experiment, see
what happens next."
"This course has helped me have more confidence in myself as an artist,
to become more free in my use of materials, and to see art as part of
my spiritual practice."​​
"As a newbee to this type of mixed media art I have gained so much."
I look forward to the next season and feel my potential for continued
growth in expressing myself through my art with this course and teacher
is endless.
