'The Sighting' Posted by Hello this at first simply done work belies a hidden complexity... as the theme/title implies, what is sighted depends on the viewer's point- of-view... it could be any of a number of things, including a sailor coming home, a lover awaiting her, or a new cityscape to wonder at... the one thing which the work does show is that there is a strong positiveness of what is sighted - the figure shows no fear or unsettledness, only delight... had thought of actually putting up futuristic cityscape - but figured it'd be better to have it not so blatent, and let the sighting be what is in the viewer's mind...

'Reflections' Posted by Hello this was one of a series which involved an oasis in the desert called 'Vault", and this was from within the interior of the extinct volcano... it is a reflection as if a mirror over the mantle, looking out across the oasis interior.. as is usual, there is a multiplicity of meanings in the theme/title, one being the look of the woman, as well as that all the books are reversed lettering [of course, in reality, the backs of the books would not even be seen in a reflection]...there is a contemplative viewing, as if there was more which should be within the oasis than is shown, as if there was unfinished business, both in that regard, and of the regards to the woman...

'transubstanciation' Posted by Hello as mentioned earlier, figures are important to many of the renderings - and not just figures, but naked ones, with all the implied glory of human sexuality... here is one of my first ones, which is showing a sexual woman with an expressed sexual tension - as witness her flowing joy juice, which in turn is nurishing the plant - which in turn is thrusting its male flower part towards her sexuality... notice that the two are the living aspects of the landscape, and thus displaying a sort of variety of 'from ashes to ashes, dust to dust' motif... a wheels within wheels circularity...

'distant wonders' Posted by Hello another of my early works, where I was still very cliche - riddened... this is the only one in which I did the border and window effect, which goes a long ways to giving the illusion of distance in the fore area... and yes, there are still places where this amount of the night sky can be seen, giving one the real feel of being 'out there' ...

'progression' Posted by Hello the earliest extant of my works to utilize the metaphoric relationship, 'progression' actually was a result of a mistake which was covered over by what became one of my best known creations - the onion tree... as can be readily discerned, the theme/title is very much a cliche, tho the particular way it was done has originality in it to some extent... one of my regrets is that I never played up on this, since there was a host of related visuals which could have used that tree, and extentions of that theme/titling...
