"Deep-end Subconscious Emerging" 2010 - SOLD! - 28" x 22" acrylic on artist canvas ready-to-hang This is a larger version of a smaller one I painted in Nov. 2010. I loved looking into the dark subconscious "hole" and had to see it BIGGER! This intuitive painting concept evolved over the course of a night of "deep" creativity and represents individual and global consciousness emerging from the subconscious of the deep. The number 12 (12' deep end) symbolizes completion, space and time, the cosmos, whole, perfect, harmonious unit, etc.

"Flowers Growing in Moonlight" ~ June 2010 - Acrylic on artist canvas/ready-to-hang/30 " x 23" Sometimes our most beautiful growth is in cover of darkness, emptiness, and adversity. Some FB comments I've received for this painting (anonymous to protect posters): "I love it!" "I love the "we often grow most in our darkest/emptiest moments". That is so very true for some folks, but some tend to go the other way, fall into the deepest depressions too. Your painting shows the ones seeking to grow. Very nice." "The empty moon is glorious."
