"Erichthonius", A mixed media work named after the offspring of Hephaestus and the Earth (Gaia) following his thwarted effort to take Athena. The Earth-born child was subsequently raised by Athena to become a great king. It speaks to aggressively creative male impulses being tempered by wisdom.

Outer space is a pleasant place
A place where you can be free
There's no limit to the things you can do
Space is the place.

Been digging on Space 1999 the last few days- forgot what a wonderfully cheesy show this was and how much I loved it as a kid! Great stories and a decent budget for that time. Fills in between Star Trek TOS and Star Trek The Motion Picture- + a lot of concept work that found its way into Star Wars

This assemblage is called "Logos" and speaks to reason and judgement as applied to art. I'm concerned with the vision of artists being commodified and watered down by social media as it is inevitably reduced by algorithms that push people towards the average.

Given that my image of "Gnosis" was censored from an earlier post (not at all sure why as nudity, even with multiple figures, is not pornography) here is an image of "Sophia" where the same spiritual concept is addressed in this mixed media painting.

A bit belated from last week's Halloween at my high school, but I figured I would put my costume out there. Much love to Orville Peck, an extraordinary singer and performing artist!

Guess who's celebrating their 1st birthday this month! 🎂Turbo, our youngest Southern white rhino calf, has grown a lot this past year, gaining weight and graduating from the maternity pasture to the main pasture with his mom and half-brother, Rocket.
