This was the start of toying with perspective on the outer edge of my canvases.

A painting of a book in psychedelic colors.

This is my brain on books.

Art just knocks me sideways - be it books, music, paintings, fashion, you name it. I will never understand anyone who isn't absolutely voracious about art. It's the air in my lungs.

Sketchbook color studies. Toulouse is such a riotous delight. Otherwise, color experiments in off the cuff geometric compositions.

A chaotic painting with many visual elements - off to the bottom right is a framed image of two women shouting into the tumultuous wind on a cliff's edge overlooking the ocean. This image is framed and set upon a background, a wallpaper of cranes beset by arrows. A shaft of like across the scene darts from the upper left to the center right, highlighting and linking the action between the cranes and the women.

More and more these days, the aim is to drag us back, down, under. To that I have a two finger salute.

A scene of deepening dusk, looking down along a walking path with trees on either side, the sky dotted through branches, street lamps illuminating patches intermittently, fireflies dotted at random.

And yet, more fireflies.

A painting of a natured corner of a backyard with a roofline cutting into view in the top left, a fence passing across the scene to the middle right. The lighting reflects dusk with a streetlight cutting through the gaps in the bushes and trees. Fireflies flash above the mossy carpeted earth and between the branches.

More fireflies because, duh. Fireflies.

A painting of a mossy path leading diagonally from the bottom left to the middle right of the scene, the majority of the painting being a wild wall of ferns and bushes, a dash of white climbing roses lead your eye off to the top right where the sky breaks through a few tree trunks.

It's about this time each year I start thinking about moss and hellebores, azaleas and snowdrops.
