Residency Musings

This is you.

The evolution of a day.

Total yearning, every muscle in my body and the dream that it surrounds.

Yearning

Adorning Life

Until you stop all your thoughts, you are tied to your surroundings.

L'aumento da Inferno e L'aumento al Paradiso

The Rise from Hell   and   The Rise to Paradise

'Even as he is who seeth in a dream,

   And after dreaming the imprinted passion

   Remains, and to his mind the rest returns not,

Even such am I, for almost utterly

   Ceases my vision, and distilleth yet

   Within my heart the sweetness born of it;'

-Il Paradiso, Canto XXXIII

A Tribute to Dante Alighieri.

Study in Watercolor

SO, watercolor. I have to say that I really enjoy it. The amount of pigment or water has an effect on the beautiful layers and light/darkness.

So light and relaxing, I find it fits for an evening in, or a summer day painting in nature.

HEART of Fire

Oils & metallic ink on very tall (unknown) canvas

This love is like a forest fire in the moss, once sweeping though, it never really leaves, it just burns quietly underground, unable to be extinguished but somehow searching for a way back up for air.

Here are 2 works in progress from my new collection. They show vivid and colorful, and/still sated with Lament. It's the colors and their supportive strands that lay the groundwork for the many ways you can interpret what they mean.
