In Nazareth, Galilee stands a spring-fed mikveh (ceremonial bath house) which has been restored many times over the centuries. Orthodox Christian tradition states that it was here the Blessed Virgin Mary was told by the Archangel Gabriel that she would bear a son who would be the awaited Messiah. The Annunciation is narrated in Luke 1:26-38, but the location is unclear. The non-canonical Protoevangelion of James states that Mary received the message while fetching a pitcher of water. Three spouts provide water from "Gabriel's Spring" to any who seek it. I have worked to capture a balance between the blazing sun and the cool shadows provided by olive, cedar, and cypress trees. Mary's Well is an active place of pilgrimage, as are the nearby Orthodox and Catholic cathedrals of the Annunciation. I hope the viewer will have the sense of making a remote pilgrimage, a connection to the locations of the Gospel, and the assurance the God will speak to us directly or through messengers if we will listen.

“I create convergent media art that celebrates the values of rural life and of the land itself, that fosters a sense of self-empowerment, self-love, self-representation, community, and the strengths of traditional cultures. My work explores the relationship between both high and low technology cultures, ethnic and class identities, shamanic tourism, and an expanding sense of the natural and supernatural worlds. As a verbal and visual storyteller, I strive to commit my rich and varied life experiences to canvas and paper, sharing the ceremonial life of indigenous communities in both normal and visionary time, and exploring concepts of strength and vulnerability through treatments of my royal, noble, and humble ancestors. What starts out as contemplation becomes, I hope, a portal for the viewer to briefly enter another reality, leaving only a sense of a picture album of the road not taken and a eulogy for the self-imposed limits of our existence.” Books "ESCAPE From the Darkroom! - Old-School Principles Applied to Modern Digital Photography" [2013] “GeoHypnotics: A Gentle Way to Access Deeper Consciousness” [2016] Four volumes ; ; ;
