This piece depicts 2 flames burning separately and as one, balanced with sand for texture and sienna watercolor hues. The sand within the acrylics symbolizes an underlying tendency to smother our own flames, which can be overcome together if we dare to encourage and ignite one another.

Where dreams begin
Nourish the body, explore the mind
Nourish the body, explore the mind is a continuance of my work for fusion and expansion on the idea that the states of matter and their stages between all meld into one. Liquid to solid to intangibility of ideas that then become reality. We are all just particles, atoms, waves and vibrations from which we both lend and restore energy to ourselves and those around us. We manifest what we see, "the law of attraction" and the power of thought becoming reality or solidifying into presence is what is represented through this most recent work.
Fusion
Working through the weekend! Inspired by a recent Call for Submissions
Title: State of Matter
Description:
Acrylic and water color mixed media with metals. Technique: Background tinted gesso with mixed acrylic blues applied with sponges and palate knife. Layered centrally with thick acrylics, watercolors and colored chain for contrast and emphasis on transitional qualities.
Statement:
This piece represents fusion of the liquid and solid state and the circumstance of transition between the two. Both in the literal sense, and in the sense that we ourselves, and the world around us, are in a constant state of flux. By exploring the fusion of solid and liquid and the state of matter between them, an understanding emerges that each one is part of the other. This relationship allows us the propensity to be ever changing, integrating past and present, exploring the liquid state of ideas which become tangible solids which inspire new ideas and creation in a constant progression.
