When We Gaze Into The

I Would Like My Art To Be About The Possibility That Each Of Us Has To Realize Our Connectedness With This Great Spirit, Whatever You Want To Name It, Our Inherent Buddha Nature, Christ Consciousness, Primordial Reality, The Ground Of Being, God. Whether You Want To Go For A Personal Or Impersonal Perception Of Spirit, Is Up To The Individual.

A Work Of Visionary Art Can Shock A Person Out Of Their Normal Thinking Patterns And Help Them To See The World In A New Way, Helping Them To Transfigure Their Perception Of Reality. Obviously, It's Only One Of Many Potential Catalysts To Healing And Transformation, But I Think It Can Be A Significant One.

Share Your Presence With Others, No Boundaries, Completely, Openly, Lovingly. Love Is What Makes Us Alive.

I've Always Been Fond Of The Idea Expressed In Buddhist Art, That There Are Certain Objects That, Just By Seeing Them, Can Plant A Seed For Liberation In The Individual. That Class Of Objects Is Called "liberation Through Seeing." Certain Buddha Images Are Like That, But If It Were Possible, I Would Like To Find Contemporary Non-traditional Sacred Images. Maybe It Sounds Pretentious, But Most Spiritual Paths Point To The Possibility That We All Can Access The Deep, Absolute Dimensions Of Reality.

To Bare Our Souls Is All We Ask, To Give All We Have To Life And The Beings Surrounding Us. Here The Nature Spirits Are Intense And We Appreciate Them, Make Offerings To Them - These Nature Spirits Who Call Us Here - Sealing Our Fate With Each Other, Celebrating Our Love.
