VAN GOGH EYE. Ya gotta love Van Gogh. He has been famous since several years after he died. He is having a media storm at this time. There is an immersive experience of his work traveling the world of museums. And, he is all over the web.

When I saw his work in the Louvre, I was stunned by the beauty and layers of meaning of his pictures.

The picture here, is related to a recent work that I did called, "Triple Skull". I tossed the idea of merged heads around in my skull. I wanted to do Van Gogh.

"Starry Starry Night", is in the back ground and a selfie that he painted has morphed into conjoined heads. Sorry, Vincent, my muse made me do it.

What does it mean? Maybe, it is whimsical nonsense. Or, maybe, that penetrating third eye symbolizes that his third eye chakra was open and he saw energies. So he painted energies.

 LOOK UP, GOLD

acrylic on panel, 24"x16", about 2018

A triad of paintings, women's heads that are partially transparent, merging with the deep landscape.  The women are clothed in flowers, some with jewel like centers.  They are looking up.  Reaching for spiritual transcendence.  Feeling merged with the universe.

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.

 Wicked Good Boogie Band

Archival print, digital, 2006

Bringing back New Orleans, One Song at a Time.  Shut Up and Dance.  Music in Your Hair.  Wicked Good Boogie Band.

Here at the Studio in the Swamp, (Washington Parish, Louisiana), Katrina was much worse than Ida.  We enjoy being surrounded by forest. This is where I want to live, I love being surrounded by trees. Katrina tornados took all the leaves off of the trees.  The canopy was bare from the end of August, until the next spring, when Mother Nature revived herself.  I am grateful that our house and studio were not damaged.  We were without power for six weeks.  To cool off and bathe, we swam in the spring fed creek.  We did OK, because we like camping.  We did OK, but when the power came back on we were ready to really appreciate electricity. 

New Orleans was settled in 1718, she has survived many storms and the civil war.  Soon, New Orleans will be better than ever.

Amethyst Dance

  Amethyst Dance

Archival ink jet print,  9/21

Joyful, exhilarated, happy, energetic, beautiful,  Jumping for joy.  Almost flying.  This is how I want to feel.  When I create these  uplifting images I feel happy.  

I really like how the colors came together here.  The saturated blue, purple and green are brilliant without being garish.  The rich colors are jewel like,  like an amethyst. I have been working with this color combo for a while, and they really created rich harmony here.  

Oh! These terrible times.  Damn!  Pandemic, war, hurricane, flooding.  Government, politics, shut the damn TV off.  Just let me focus on making things better in my little corner of the world.  I try to think positive.  Every cloud has a silver lining.  I am Queen of Denial.  

We got a bit of damage from that bitch Ida. Here in Washington Parish, maybe about a hundred miles from the coast.   We have been focusing on cleaning up and repairing damage.  We were out of power for only two days.  Just long enough to make me grateful for clean water coming out of the tap.  Just long enough to appreciate electricity.  A tornado came through and downed some large trees that blocked the trail down to the creek.  A husky neighbor has done a lot of chain sawing, the trail is almost clear.  No damage to the house.  Thank Goddess.

This picture was created in photoshop.  I have been doing photoshop since the late 90's. You can order prints on canvas or paper ($60.00), from Saatchi Art Online.
