Sounds of Morning

finches soft sweet
         chorus
blue jays trumpeting
each calling come
         come
flock of others join
one by one

Beauty's Path


  Featured image: Which Path Should I Take

“Each path she followed lead to beauty.

Stream. pool, waterfall

rocks so thick with moss bushes heavy with berries

elder, black thorn, sour crab-spples. “  Jackie Morris

do you ever wonder

who passed this way?

     this way being where

     ever you are

when did they pass?

how did they pass?

do you feel them?

     feeling their

earth such a rich,

rich ….. complex

place

and oh the stories

that lie within.

Choice


  Featured image: Talisman II

Abstract art, for me, is an indispensable medium for communicating a moral idea.

The moral idea that occurs in all my creations is freedom.  Freedom to choose goes hand in hand with the creation of abstract art.  Without freedom there can be no choice, the commitment to select or the commitment to choose to refrain are both linked.

Natural World

 

Featured image: The Whole World

the natural world

a forest

at first glance 

overwhelming

complex

chaos

irregular –

     yet….

regular

hexagons of a 

     petoskey stone

spirals of a seashell

     a peacock's feathers

the wings of a butterfly

regular and irregular

they need each other.
