Welcome to my delightful world, brought forth with acrylics and mixed media. Into the realms of dark matter and energy mixed with microscopic organisms are shrunken and enlarged to offer the viewer a wide chasm of perceptual contortion.
The individual brush strokes and swirling colours in the micro-dots bring the audience in from a distance to an up close analysis revealing hidden wonders that shed insight into the life inside of and encompassing us.
We are a world of diversity that is mostly unseen, and rely on it for our very existence.
In a state of meditation, these pieces are brought about. In their variation the background and underlying nature of life is brought forward, as the dance it is.

Our
Story
These works are from 2009/2010 and represent what remains of the Hawai'i period.
After years away from painting, The decision to leave the painting kit behind when I began my bicycle years. There was a life changing event that brought them thrust into my life again, and I took to the work with abandon.
The majority of these works are 3"x5". Many of them were sold in Hawai'i at independent auctions.
