Building a Better World

“The future is not to be predicted, but created,’” says Dr. Ervin Laslo, an esteemed philosopher and systems scientist.  This is how I visualize that grand, beautiful world being built.

Thoughts Become Things

Our consciousness creates our physical reality. Let’s think beautiful, happy thoughts, shall we?

For the Jetsons

A midcentury modern vibe.

14 x 14″ acrylic, mixed media on drawing paper, mounted on wooden panel, wood frame.

 

Lifeboat

A nonrepresentational painting that had a mind of it’s own.  I stepped back to review my work and there he was.  They say you paint what you know, so it was just a matter of time before a frequent visitor to our yard ended up in a painting.

18 x 24″ wooden panel, 2″ deep, sides are black; acrylic, framed.

Perfect Equation 

Is there one? I recently read that Euler’s Identity is an equation that comprises the five most important mathematical constants.  Apparently, it’s been compared to a Shakespearean sonnet. Physicist Richard Feynman called it “the most remarkable formula in mathematics.” So appealing.

As we mull over things in our mind, how do we untimately reach the conclusions we do?  This is my visual representation of that mysterious abstract mental process.

Memories of that summer

Bits and pieces, fragments of memory, snippets of color, flashes of light and pattern.

Finding his way though the universe

I painted this with the new generation of space explorers in mind. I see it as an abstracted space ship, but you may see a sailboat.  It’s your choice – ship or spaceship. Mariner explorers hundreds of years ago were just as brave as today’s off-planet adventurers.  I’m in awe of them all.

The Midnight Howl

A nonrepresentational painting that had a mind of it’s own.  I stepped back to review my work and there he was.  They say you paint what you know, so it was just a matter of time before a frequent visitor to our yard ended up in a painting.
