TEMPLE OF THE RAINBOW 40" X 30" This is my first painting. It was finished in 1970. Its' concept was born in Los Angeles. Late one night, in an elevated state, I drew this rainbow design on the insides of 4 very large windows. After the sketching was finished later that morning, I spent the next two weeks painting the exterior of those windows on the building that was to become, a landmark in the community of Silverlake,"The Temple of the Rainbow" a Rock 'n Roll nightclub.
BLUE STAR 48" X 48" An idyllic impression of our world! The view at the left side of the orb was the view outside my studio window. The mountains are in the Sierras of California, in Kern Canyon. The tree with the roses and lilies represents the coming together of the spirit & physical. The white glow above the pool containing a grouping of diamonds, each radiating rainbow rays outward. The diamonds are elevated above the canvas and signify a presence in this life. The Native American Rainbow Bridge, and to pass over it a sentient being must sensitive to the Earth Mother. The pool is as deep as the consciousness itself. The sun...of course and the bubbles represent the universe. This piece, utilizing many symbols, does not profess to know the answers; but, is a fair representation of them.
- SIGNATURE 30" X 72" , This is my signature...follow closly...a drop in the left corner seeps smaller droplets; then divides into the 6 separate colors each signifying a different aspect of our physical and emotional plane. Then come together at the base of the fall; rising to break at the top of the fall and descending in drops to the multi-colored pool with the large colorful KISS bobbing on the surface; then, brimming over, the pool overflows in a sheet of multi-colored liquid separating into descending droplets. .
CASTLES 20" X 30" A study of minerals. This piece is represented by various crystal castles. In the mineral world all crystal formations are individualized by (1) the difference in color, and (2) a difference in the peaks and number of facets. All of the "castle" formations are organic and grow from a base of gold & silver. The central cloud, flashed with color, emits separate rainbow ribbon scrolls and is elevated above the canvas; as is the entire lowest crystal formation.
CAMEO 36" X 48" Mirror inages sometimes reflect all or part of what's to be seen and sometimes what is not to be seen by the eye...a stained-glass butterfly floatinga simple rosebud, dripping with dew...both contrast a rainbow aura boralis...an exploding star, light years in the future...all set in a plum atmosphere. Linen stretched over masonite , .
AT THE SEASHORE 48" X 48" Rainbow seaweed highlights the shallow ocean...swirling around luminous nautilus shells and a fish at the left swims forward leaving the shadows of where it had been.
CREATION 48" X 48" The universe was created on the first day...as it is written. The "Big Bang" explodes from a central crystal and energy moving outward, at the speed of light...the galaxies are formed! All of these primary galaxies, now in their respective positions in the universe, expand forever outward. On the sixth day life was created, imagined here by the universal sperm, moving through the depths of space only to find firmament on our "Blue Star".
COLLISION 40" X 30" A slice in the fabric of space...the momentary non-collision of two stars, each with planets in orbit
