During my recent period of enforced idelness, I've spent a bit of time going through my computer files and paintings. I rediscovered a few pieces I'd forgotten about.

"OM" acrylic/canvas |
|
"Om" came through in a bout of anger and frustration, yet, is now a focal point of relaxation and calm.
|
"Ornithology" acrylic/canvas |
I labored over the piece, "Ornithology," for months in early 2006. I am fascinated with the process of glazing to achieve shading and depth, and how a painting is revealed with each thin, nearly transparent layer.

"Blue Mandala" acrylic/canvas |
Circles and circular movement are recurring themes in my work.
"Mandala" loosely translated from Sanskrit means "circle" and in some spiritual thought, represents the center and beginning of all creation.
