This painting embodies the feelings of freedom and flow I experienced when riding my bike on Venice Beach. The painting presaged a move to Maui, where the energy of the ocean continues to expand my soul. I chose the 5' x 6' canvas because I can visually step into it and physically engage my whole body in the creation. This artwork is composed in poured paint, which flows onto all four sides of the piece. The title, "Eye of the Storm" simultaneously evokes the all-knowing eye of the cosmos watching over us, and the stillness which is always present at the center of all motion.

There are only two kinds of artists—revolutionaries and plagiarists. – Paul Gauguin In my studio process, I discover patterns in the splendor of liquid paint as it seeps from possibility to presence. Beginning with a splash of numinous non-sense arrested by a moment of awe, I am seduced into the quest for one more glimpse of magic. I have spent glorious summers camping and rock climbing in the Sierra. Like a climber on a vertical ascent, my paintings dance that edge of will and surrender. My work reveals my reverence for the heat of sacred sensuality. I paint from that place where spirit and sex are one. The paintings are steeped in a primal feminine sensibility of passionate receptivity, of ecstatic union, of creation as birth. On the tantric tree of life, sex is the root and spirit is the flower. I believe that form follows consciousness. All that is visible appears through a refraction of the invisible, like the colors of a rainbow appearing from white light. Serving as a potential prism for this spectacle, the creative intelligence of the Universe is, I believe, at least as highly-structured and multifaceted as a crystal, as reflectively illusory and as transparently true. My painting process mirrors my respect for the direct wisdom of the lifeforce itself. I work, not with visualizing an image, but with an awareness of the invisible qualities that I wish to see –passion, brilliance, serenity, expansion. I hold these qualities in consciousness while I catch them appearing in form. I am fascinated by the idea that, in the whole universe, light is the only substance moving at a constant velocity. This says to me that light, relative to itself, is absolutely still. In meditation, as one comes into synchrony with that perfect stillness, the eyes appear to glow. I paint for that moment of radiance when a painting glows in synchrony with the stillness of its own light. Hopefully, the flow stops there. Sometimes, as I witness the spectacle of sunlight on leaves in the wind, I know that just this is enough. The existence of nature inspires me to explore the nature of existence: of the cosmos, the self, and the paint.
