FLUID ENDURANCE, acrylic on panel, 24"x16", from a few years ago. What does it mean? Your guess is as good as mine, ha ha. I guess that she is having a spiritual experience. The circular motion and the integration of the head with the sky illustrates expanded consciousness. I use art to communicate the explorations of my mind. E-mail me to purchase.
Resting on Couch
limited edition of 50, signed, archival inkjet print, 1/2021
Well, here is a picture of a woman relaxing comfortably. A bit of a change in subject matter, because usually my women figures are very active. They dance, they fly, they do yoga. I guess it is time to take a rest after all that exercise. She looks peaceful and contented.
The colors are rich and mellow. I think that they are yummy, like a chocolate covered cherry. The woman is depicted with minimal graceful lines.
I create digital works similar to the way that I create with paint and canvas. Using digital brushes I create lines and texture that show, "the mark of the maker". The composition of the painting creates a large "X", with the blue throw balancing the diagonal line of the woman and the window.
You may order a print by clicking on my email address in the column to the right and leaving me a message stating the print that you want. Prints, 8.5x11", are $60.00. An acrylic on canvas original painting may be commissioned, write to me about the size that you want and I will email you back about the price. Your commissioned painting will be very similar, but not exactly like this digital image.
Happy New Year!! Surely 2021 will be better than last year. Stay healthy.

In Sankrit this yoga posture is named, " Tri Pada Adho Mukha Svanasana".
I think that this style of figure shows "tribal" influence.
I took yoga classes for about twenty, twenty five, years, from the 70's into the 90's. I seldom do yoga sessions now. But, at times, I am aware of my body, like when I am waiting for the coffee to brew, and do Mountain Pose, just standing straight and balanced with deep breathing. I used to do Mountain Pose while waiting in lines.
I can still touch my toes. I was never able to do a head stand without propping my feet against the wall. The yoga practice that i did is still benefiting me. I think that it taught me more self awareness, and more awareness in general. The practice taught me what little poise that I possess.
These days my exercise is gardening. This is a nice work out for my age. Bending, stooping, hoeing, shoveling. Sometimes i think that i should do more yoga, then i think, that i should not should on myself.
