more new art, all the art shown here is created simply by engaging in the process of creation, with out the process the means by which we may see is lost in the missed opportunity of the moment. Art is merely the process by which we may see the beauty of our own creation unfold in front of our eyes.

Metaphor

temptation

trilogy

the mind, body, soul.

The soul is the tree, the mind is the apple, the body is the serpent. The trilogy, third dimensional meaning is found through the minds learning of self. The body is to nourish the mind in its quest for growth. The body (snake) has many desires which conflict with its true mission. Desire for pleasure becomes distractions to the mind in its exploration of the soul. Soon the distractions become the meaning to life for many, the path becomes muddied, the search is forgotten, evolution becomes stymied, the species fails, possibility is lost, the soul is forgotten, left on its own with out the means to see itself.

art

Settling down inside myself

a wooden ship just before she rots

the steady beat of waves lapping, sides once solid and strong

gentle lapping, the illusion of peace and innocence.

Rotting where water replaces wood, rushing in

the outside forces conquer. filling my hull

weight beyond my inner strength, the rushing stops, the moment has come.

Settling descending as natural and poetic

graceful a full symphony. gone from view, alone to myself

escape these holds from all their baggage, the surface without illusions
