poem......



Coasting through time
Catching a big wave
Riding the tube like a wormhole
Into a futuristic city

Everything is really clean
The air is super clean
There are a lot of floating vehicles
The fashion is retro Jetsons

It is an illusion of course
I see the poverty at the perimeter
It is a clear line
As If I were standing on a stage or something

It’s  funny there are no people around today
Perhaps it is Sunday, and people are at the park
Eating brightly colored ice pops
And watching strawberries float in the sky

They are lighter than air by the way and disappear
Into the sun
Where they probably explode
Into the space between planets

We possess the ability to step into the timeline
Slow it down, speed it up
Dance upon the moment, the edge of the
The edge of the outer universe

I double down on reality
Amidst the pull
To floating again
While the song plays again, over and over

It is a sign
Impressions held to the cheek
So much further to go
Feels like an eternity

I am thinking of the listener
The cadence of the breath
We go as far as we can together
Sometimes we part sadly

Grass
I stop myself and look up
Stars spinning
I am spinning

Again I will find myself
As a red wind reveals black lines
Swirling there is the silhouette
A black cat

I embrace
The bare tree
Sounds of rustling leaves
Long dead crunching

I see myself
The storm is over
I am on my back
I think it is me

The sun through clouds
So that is like kind of hazy
You know what I mean?
Bright in a weird way

I close my eyes
And let go
When we release into it
We become free of the helmet of self restriction

This helmet locks us down
To hear the sound you have to let go of thoughts
So you can hear
It is not trying to listen, it is listening.

He took a large large breath in
She calls him back
He is standing on the porch
Listening.

Toon Tablet.


this is one of the "kraztoons" as a clay tablet.  I have been working with sculpy lately, a oven harden clay, and thought of making a series of these panels incorporating words and images in black and white (for now).


This is a clay "memory box" another idea I have been working on.......

A new year.


A new year....

I am really liking these clay pieces.  It is an old idea I had but had the technical problem of the clay never hardening.  This is made with Sculpy, which can be hardened in an oven.  This one is around 8"x10".

This is a piece that I started a while back and am working on completing now.  I had planned on working it up with blues to go with the series I am working on, but will hold onto the central figures in the warm colors I think.  I am also thinking the light source will come from the center of the image and radiate out.

I have been thinking of adding perspective to the works. For the most part I try to keep the drawing intuitive and spontaneous, so this would be an interesting change.
