The Dimension of Spirit
This is the dimension of spirit: where spiritual traditions, mythology, visionary experience, & philosophical ideas come together and enrich the soul.
Christ Consciousness
Created at a time when I was studying and trying to connect to the core ideas of Jesus. This piece is very simple visually and spiritually: be of the same mind as Christ, Oneness with Reality, Pure Intention, Acting from Love.
Now O Clock
What does it mean to live in the now? Basically, it means to be present with yourself, other people, nature, the universe itself....everything. It means to not be obsessed with the past nor be too anxious about the future. Obsession with the past is guilt and obsession with the future is anxiety. The time for living is now, the time to act is now.
Angel Of Contemplation
Sitting in the corner, deep in thought…this angel is associated with deep thought, meditation and dreams.
The Spiritual Journey
This project is part collage and part painting. I created this to capture the feeling of spiritual awakening and the spiritual journey with it’s difficulties, confusion but ultimately “enlightenment”.
Kokopelli
This figure is an important god in the mythologies of tribes in the southwestern desert. He is associated with fertility, music and is a trickster figure as well. Some believe he was partly based on real people like traders, shamans, musicians and storytellers from pre-columbian America.
Taliesin
Inspired by a poem by an ancient Welsh poet named Taliesin. It expresses ideas of reincarnation and the interconnection of all things:
“I have been a blue salmon,
I have been a dog, a stag, a roebuck on the mountain,
A stock, a spade, an axe in the hand,
A stallion, a bull, a buck,
I was reaped and placed in an oven;
I fell to the ground when I was being roasted
And a hen swallowed me.
For nine nights was I in her crop.
I have been dead, I have been alive.
I am Taliesin.”
