Omicron Suspension
Painting on canvas, 40 x 30 inches.

Omicron Suspension
Between falling and floating is a point of sustained grace, a place that is neither of two extremes but both reconciled. Here we find a center of strength and a radius of hope in a world where up is equally down.

Omicron Horizon
Painting on canvas, 40 x 30 inches.

Omicron Horizon
Past the reaches of our senses is a place we look for, yet never find, a place from which we were born and a place to which we will return. Not really a place, but a state of existence, it lies beyond the horizon of our comprehension.

Omicron Contraction No. 1
Reality rises up in an ever-shifting landscape that makes us humble but strong. What we see (in truth) has changed already into something new. Sometimes aware, sometimes ignorant of our position, we are on a ledge between where we go and where we come from. We never are really still, but tied inseparably into the movement of a great kinetic tapestry.

Omicron Outlander
Painting on canvas, 40 x 30 inches.

Omicron Outlander
A curious form runs free, perhaps from another time or from another world. It's a play on possibility -- how nature toys with extremities. Yet every place, foreign tongue, or race we know of or suspect to be somewhere else shares common threads of connection.

Omicron Orbit

Omicron Orbit
A dancer leaps through clouds, longing to be of the sky. For lack of physical wings, she uses her feelings to fly.

Omicron Chakra

Omicron Chakra
Out of infinite-seeming chaos comes formation, which (by some accounts) is energy ensemblings of a cosmic tone. Like waves in water, this energy is elusive and ever-changing into newer shapes. In the face of such change, mind and matter intertwine (through concentrated pose or kinetic gesture), and a higher consciousness of self is revealed.
