:: The ORIGINS of Life ::
Life started in the Primordial Stream. In the beginning there was only slime.It oozed green from the bowels of the earth, bubbling forth, celestial song heralding the moment***In comedy, as in life, timing is everything.It took an eternity for conditions to be right, ripening in exquisite anticipation***Covered in ice, ravaged by wind,the germ of creation awaits its turn in the evolutionary cycle, relentlessly to multiply***At first, some tentative steps.A few primitive plants, glowingly uncomplicated, mere forebears
of the glory in store***Primordial life-forms in first blush,Like brushstrokes of an impressionist master capturing a garden
of as-yet-undiscovered delights***An undefined amalgam, a bouquet.A priceless gift from Gaia, the most-generous, the all-giving, all-forgiving Mother of us all***It comes from the sky, as the heavens darken.
It points the way to cataclysmic change a cascade of riches of everlasting strife***This is a time before death.
That will come later. Now life begins. It is creation.And for the moment, indestructible.

:: My Natural Stone Sculptures on Crete 2007&8 ::
These are sculptures I made on the island of Crete, Greece in October & November 2007 and then again January, Feb & March 2008. Crete is the birthplace of Zeus and the home of the Minotaur who lurked in the Labyrinth. From King Minos' Palace Icarus tryed to escaped and flew to near the sun and melted his wax wings and fell into the sea. These are just some of the islands legends. Thus the stones and rock are unique and they inspire me constantly.
:: Test Sculpture reversals in Greece ::
On the digitally exposed photographs that had silhouetted the rock sculptures,
I applied an equalizing filter to this area thus revealing the lost details. I adjusted the color
and they seemed more revealingly mystical.

These images were all made with wildflowers..Mostly in Maine and Quebec. When doing this I thought out the flowers. Asking them which ones would like to loose their full life in exchange for entering the digital world as a newly fashioned way of showing flowers. So the ones I choose seemed to beckon me when I walked through out the country side. Waving fiercely in the wind while others just bearly moved. At first it was hard and took many tries to make a succesfull image that was instantly surpringly nice. Then I started really seeing exacting images that formed in my head . Then once in the in the studio when I copied what I saw in my mind, it was these images that were the best. It was like the secret life of the plants being revealed that was a visual vocabulary that was benefical to both of us.
