In praise of Her Highness – Spider Lily Red update.
How do you gather your red, while waiting for the autumn in the lightless soil?
When the three a.m. air tells me the summer is near, I think of your bulbs, eavesdropping on the night.

The Best Thought I’ve Ever Thought
dawned on me today, that
I’m gonna miss being me
when I’m gone.
Text: “The best thought I’ve ever thought” November 03, 2012, originally posted on cowbird.com.
Pictures: Both from early 2014. Kites gliding is a video still, Fukui, Japan, 2011. The small wood sculpture is from 1996. I wrote about my sculptor phase here: Abstraction in Nature, a Tribute.
Sunken Feathers
Various images of the Ocean are layered over feather drawings originally created for my “Wing Dress” series.
The Ocean has been my muse, especially for the dress series, and during a long creative process my daily visit to the water fed me visions and the energy that deepened and lightened me simultaneously.
These images are my attempt at somehow capturing the mystery I’ve witnessed while by, on or in the Sea.
