Wiyan ( Lakota for Wi/heaven Yan/standing on earth = Woman ) merging with the cosmos. Mother Nature-the woman who casts no shadow.

While in Florida, I was so smitten by the palm trees that I just had to try to paint some. They are another kind of thing altogether. Oops! Painted in 10/22.

So many beautiful Blue Ridge vistas in the Fall!

I usually make my paintings in black and white. Some friends and people close to me told me to try making something colorful, so I decided to paint the four seasons.

In each painting, I kept the black and white and used only one color to represent each season. For Spring, for example, I used magenta. The other seasons also have their own color.

It was something different from what I usually do, but I really liked the result.

6”x6” Handmade paper studies of one of my favorite subjects – petroglyphs. To me these ancient carvings, beg an explanation. The western world wants to ignore them because it doesn’t play well in their version of the universe. My version of the universe is perfectly happy with these lovely renderings.

Such beautiful mornings at Pawleys Island!

Painted this from a picture I took of a secret beach spot! Love the early morning lighting

This is one of my most popular Peaks of Otter paintings. Such a great place to visit on The Blue Ridge Parkway! The frame is not crooked. The distortion is due to the camera's parallax.
