Briar Rose/Mixed Media on Paper

When I started this series of paintings and drawings, I wanted to
make them more directly personal than my previous work—
something more like the Blues or the Country-Western music I grew
up with or like early Chinese love poems. And, at the same time,
something like the work of the early Renaissance Sienese painter,
the Osservanza Master, whose small paintings have a haunting
intensity. These are paired with "mesostics," a simple poetic
form created by John Cage, shown here in 'collapsed' form (see http://www.euph0r1a.net/mesostomatic/what.html). CLICK to view 6 of 13.

Campeche Canons/Large-scale Mixed Media on Paper

These large-scale works on paper were based on 2 dreams, one of
an exploding landscape that ended with all coming into focus upon
the gulf shore of Mexico and, the other, where liturigal music was
being sung to jazz improvistions, so "The Campeche Canons".
