I have left my usual "draw from references" mentality and now I'm trying to use my own mind to create pieces. These come about from a fluidity of what is internal. How we feel things but not always can discern those emotions.

I completed the Storybook animal series while at the CACtroy Residency. It consists of 26 drawings. I will be updating my blog as I add them. I'm interested in using them in a book and I will explain more details and the project comes along.

Liquid Shade, October 2010

"Liquid Shade" comes from the John Muir book, Wilderness Essays, the whole sentence is, "The highest peaks burned like islands in a sea of liquid shade." The drawing and the quote remind me of Black Mountain in Canberra, Australia.

While I was in Houston this week visiting Peter, I drew this series:

With this series I wanted to draw plants and animals that I have seen in the wild or at a zoo. Relaying this message of memory. I also wanted to read about the plants herbal uses.


Chinese Lantern

Dandelion flowers create a yellow dye, the roots a magenta one. tea from the leaves to promote bowel regularity. Also you can make a wine from the blossoms.
Basil helps with nausea, gas pains and dysentery.
Daffodil didn't have any uses
