IF • Theory

February 18, 2008 · Leave a Comment

The theory that “Onion Domes” are like “two hands clasped in prayer” or
“a flame burning towards heaven.”
Either way, they beautifully express
in a fine way a natural spiritual attitude of reverence.

A daily log… dial again… day by day…
It can be an idealogue…

A what? An idea?
What idea?

Like there is this small "Flying Color" in today’s new "Botánica"! 
…now tag along "little love one" in red!

Flit, flutter or fly?

February 7, 2008 · 1 Comment

Most flowers and plants have “the desire” to FLY, believe me! Remember the purple-red Oxalis?

Watch their petals and leaves, they act like small wings fluttering to the breezes and rising to the sun.
Their seeds manage to flit from here to there. Some even manage to glide on a little wisp of air.

They are born to the light and air, bearing the hope to spirit themselves into LIFE!

A Celebration!

January 30, 2008 · 1 Comment

With colors!

Vamos a celebrar… con colores!

I will start with “Celebrate”…from “Las Botánicas”

…a rising stigma surrounded by the filaments and the anthers are hosting a celebration!
These delicate hosts will powder their guests with
“kisses of golden pollen”.

Art Statement

When I take the time to look and to really see and to apply my "foolish" imagination, there are worlds within worlds within worlds to be discovered.

When I allow my eyes to be excited and fascinated and pleased at what they see, I begin a journey, inventing a path to the place I choose to go; and magic happens!
