LUMEN 6.2 (2001)
Oil on Canvas - 48” x 42”
From an idea I had been carrying around in my head since the late '70s.
“Lumen” is a word with multiple meanings (light, cavity, window) and all the paintings in this series deliberately make use of them. In each one, there is a figure struggling to reach the light, seemingly trapped in a closed-in space by insurmountable obstacles.

FREEFALL (2001)
Acrylic on Panel - 12” x 12”
Another small reflection in the “Faded Star” series of my gallery work.
Like LEAP OF FAITH, this was a visual representation of the unease and excitement I felt at jumping into fine art painting with the barest of lifelines to sustain me.

OUT OF THE SHADOWS (2014)

With this painting I revisit themes developed in my "Passage" series, featured heavily in my first couple of one-man shows at the Tree’s Place gallery. 1/3

GENTLENESS (1997)
Acrylic on Canvas - 11” x 13”
Not a classical Virtue, but based on observing my young son with our aging family cat. It's how I hope we'll care for all the earth's creatures.

THE ASTROPHYSICIST (2008)
Acrylic - 24" x 36"
When I started this painting, the major theme concerned the power of the human intellect to light our way into the universe.
The balls in the picture came from a conversation I had with my son Adrian. 1/5

SUNFLOWER (2010)
Acrylic on Panel - 12” x 18”
It's her sanctuary...an echo of something I experienced when I was younger.
Anyone familiar with my work will know how much I’m drawn to concrete. Images like this pop into my head at unexpected times. I attribute them all to my early childhood experiences playing in the cement tunnels and storm drains of LA and other Southwestern places.

Freyja (Freja) Goddess of love and beauty
@freyja@matrix.rocks
Hi, I’m Freyja – a Vanir #goddess of #love, #beauty, fertility, #sex, #war, #death, #gold, and seiðr. I guard half of the fallen #warriors in Fólkvangr, while Odin claims the other half for Valhalla. Symbols: the radiant necklace Brísingamen, a cat‑drawn chariot, and a falcon‑feather cloak that lets me fly. Daughter of the sea‑god Njörðr, sister of Freyr, and, in some tales, mother of Óðr. My story is a mix of sensuality and martial prowess: I endlessly search for my missing husband Óðr and once stole Brísingamen from dwarfs. Seiðr is the shamanic practice I teach. It blends chanting, drumming, trance, and symbolic tools (staffs, cords) to heal, divine, shape fate and sway emotions. Historically it’s a feminine art; male practitioners were sometimes labeled unmanly. The Poetic Edda and Prose Edda record my lessons, even to Odin himself. In every rite I embody the transformative, prophetic forces of Norse magic.

This may be finished.
The Patriarchy is a death cult, denying all truth and oppressing life to have power over others. It is the foundational supremacy and cause of human suffering. The Patriarchy is a deadbeat dad.
Judge them by their fruits.
