…a new addition to the Roots Garden Sculptures, from a dead thyme plant.
Zen, Day and Night
Thursday, May 15th, 2008
Zen Garden 08 Day interest and night drama! 24H x 24W x 1D inches acrylics on woven canvas strips over a layer of wrapped canvas. Sold.
Hangs diagonally about one inch from the wall surface. The wrapped sides are painted, frame unnecessary. View the piece from start to finish April 27th, May 12th and May 13th. The tiny openings between woven strips are brightly colored orange and reds, and to ensure they’d be noticeable. A string of small clear lights is woven into more canvas strips behind the frame. It’s quite attractive in the dark and also hung diagonally, optionally hung as a square.
Zen Garden 08 – work in progress
Tuesday, May 13th, 2008
Crackle glaze was applied at one stage, but the humidity is too high so it didn’t take, may apply again later at some point. Today playing with the patterns, colors, refining the pebbles, splattering to give them more realistic texture.
Zen Garden 08
Monday, May 12th, 2008
The Emerald Tree Boas is out in one work-area, the recently started Maple Leaves in another, and in the afternoon when I feel less like thinking but still want to keep the hands busy, have started painting Zen Garden 08.
Woven canvas
Sunday, April 27th, 2008
I started covering the new stretcher-frames we built last week. Leftover canvas was cut and ironed into strips about 1″ wide, then woven across a 24 x 24 inch stretcher. I have a few ideas, and will start painting this one when Artini is finished.
More garden whimsy

Fear, another root-system garden sculpture from a Basil stem and roots.
Song and Dance
Thursday, December 20th, 2007
Alright, three or more constitute a new photographic series: am calling this one Roots Garden Sculptures. This one I see as “Song and Dance”, of Basil roots and stems. It was peeking out of the lawn and garden litter bag and almost made it to the curb without notice. The first three root systems, now garden sculptures, were compelling enough alone to catch my attention, but now I’m going to consciously seek them out.
Some things are Art without any manipulation at all. The roots of creativity too, really.
