In "Αtoxic (νηπενθές)"; two figures, one, physical person embraced by another comprised of ideal thought; perhaps a dream of solace from the pain of sorrow. The word nepenthe νηπενθές first appears in the fourth book of Homer's Odyssey: ἔνθ᾽ αὖτ᾽ ἄλλ᾽ ἐνόησ᾽ Ἑλένη Διὸς ἐκγεγαυῖα: αὐτίκ᾽ ἄρ᾽ εἰς οἶνον βάλε φάρμακον, ἔνθεν ἔπινον, νηπενθές τ᾽ ἄχολόν τε, κακῶν ἐπίληθον ἁπάντων. Then Helen, daughter of Zeus, took other counsel. Straightway she cast into the wine of which they were drinking a drug to quiet all pain and strife, and bring forgetfulness of every ill. —Odyssey, Book 4, v. 219–221[2]

Metalpoint Artist, Designer, Fencing Instructor in NYC. 30yrs of experience in Design I've been a Creative Director for http://www.webbdevlam.com/ My art are visions of scientific consciousness created with precious metal. - A classical method given new light - Metal point is an artists tool and a technique, descending from the ancient stylus and ancestor of the modern pencil, small, sharpened metal rods of 24k Gold, Pure Silver, Platinum, Bronze, and Copper are used to create images with singular beauty. Compositions are drawn upon specially prepared supports like aluminum or wood and then a ground is applied to them that is pigmented with natural minerals like: Malachite, Lapis Lazuli, Cobalt and various metal oxides. Casting a point source of light across the line-work will reveal the precious metals true color and sheen.
