What began, for me, as the desire to re-create something akin to the latest Hubble telescopes visual morphed as soon as paint met canvas. The conversations with the internal and external Artist included arguments and, "Are you sure?" at each turn because what they could see, I could not. The outcome is where Their insistence and my obstinateness meet.

Framework is the reminder that no matter the box of 'understanding' we assign to our experiences, and those of others, All That Is is. Our rigidity of standards, measures and definitions are overlaid on the simplicity of life unfolding as the expression of God's creation. The universe's expansive nature is always and all-ways; far beyond our limited ability to experience and express it. Here, the stars sing, the trinity shines and Grace sighs.

The shapes and colors hold particular meaning to me that might mean something--or feel--different to you. For instance, the larger glowing circle here is reminiscent of Hildegarde of Bingen's use of circles. Whether it was she who guided my hand in this I don't know but the instruction was clear. The smaller circle symbolizes the Word, the Voice of Creation, waiting to emerge at the place where the Heart and the Universe (and courage) meet.

She is 36"x 48", acrylic on canvas. $4900

Colors of Faith

I am a savant artist. The compulsion to paint appeared in the spring of 2022 as suddenly as the capacity to heal disease with touch in 2009. The sensitivities and perceptiveness that guide the work as a shaman bring the Language of Creation to viewers in a visible way. In the summer of 2022, God called my painting "faith in color." It took me two years before I realized that, to me, it's the "color of faith". When I paint I don't know how it's going to turn out, I don't even have to know the next step; I don't question my choices in color or texture or how the canvas and creation move me. I merely am and in the movement, deeply still and deeply peace-filled.

To many, these pieces are mystical, multi-sensory experiences; temperature changing, heart-opening, illness-curing paintings that imbue the viewer with peace and wonder. Though pieces are not created with a story in mind, sensitive viewers can hear and feel the stories of Ancients, the land and water. When I begin, I usually don't know what will unfold: abstract landscape, surrealist weaving of magic, or Missing and Murdered Indigeous Women speaking through the ground and ether.

Each piece evolves into its own rhythm and tone, responding to the energies within and around me, and similar to the way I experience synesthesia, emits its own sensory experience. Most pieces challenge the status quo of spiritual spaces and conceptions asking viewers to reevaluate limitations and the liminal space between the physical and invisible worlds. What often at first glance is two-dimensional becomes an experience akin to walking through a threshold, entering sanctuary as well as deep space: of the inner kind and that associated with the stars.
