Sphere Four black slate blues and gray tones

slate blues and gray tones surround me

My parents' generation used slide rulers to perform complex calculations

These sweet little perennials grow in my Colorado high alpine garden

Mixed media (acrylic and colored paper) on Arches watercolor paper

I transferred photos of many butterflies onto this bright inked background to look like they were dancing with each other

Sphere Four black slate blues and gray tonesOil and cold wax on mylar 5" x 7 image, matted and framed under glass (framed size 8" x 10") Sphere Four marks a new direction in my work with a switch to the mediums of oil paint and cold wax. The four paintings in this Spheres series represent an abstraction of worlds outside our size scale. I've left it up to the viewer to decide if these are macro views of the cosmos, or micro views into the world of biology.
