Zaubervogel - Magic Bird
Zaubervogel (Magic Bird) Original Painting Sept. 2009
Can you paint in German? Certainly! From the title to the "Art Solutions" set up, this is a German painting, and very interesting it was too. Made the vector to go with it whilst I was there, if ever I want this design on a cofeecup or a Tshirt, it will save a lot of time.
Guten Morgen, Zaubervogel!

Mirrorman Symbol Hybrid Rant
Yes ... that's two photos of the same picture. I could take 'em all day and every one would look different, and none of them look like the original!
MirrorMan Symbol Hybrid - Photo 1
MirrorMan Symbol Hybrid - Photo 2
I am always complaining that the photographs of the symbol paintings do NOT do them any kind of justice and you really cannot know what they're like "face to face" from the web pics.
This has annoyed me so much I've stopped photographing the symbol paintings I do and just have the odd symbol hybrid about the virtual place, but that's not a true record of my paintings either.
The two pics above are a typical example of my failure to correctly photograph a symbol painting, in this case the MirrorMan symbol hybrid, in any way, shape or form that would give at least an idea of what that painting actually looks AND FEELS like when you stand in front of it.
With the symbol paintings, they shimmer and shine with golds and silvers, pearlescent and opalised paints, and extremely vibrant and bright colours. They shift and change when you move, when the clouds move across the sky, when the light changes or your perspective. The lines and shapes themselves seem to move by themselves. They're stunning, and just won't allow themselves to be photographed by me!
WAIL!
LOL. I have been taking photographs long enough now to have some idea what works, and what doesn't, what will show up and what won't, so it seems to me, there's an evil aspect at work which is actively sabotaging taking photographs of the paintings so that I'll be forced into an actual, hard, non-virtual exhibition one of these days ...
Who knows.
But hey - thanks for listening to me rant on about it! It does make you feel better to have a good old bitch and moan once in a while. It's an energy release don't you know!

The Lighthouse
The Lighthouse 2009 Vector
In 2006, I made a special program designed to help activate the psychic circuitry, The Appollonius Quartet.
The second quarter of the four, which together produce more than the sum of their parts, is called "The Lighthouse". And the Lighthouse is such an amazing metaphor.
I painted a symbol hybrid at that time, and today it has occurred to me to turn the original painting into a vector drawing because then you can do more things with it.
The picture above is the new vector image, the one below the original painting in acrylics on board from 2006.

Strange Green Guy 2003
Found this today ...The words read:
He wasn't quite himself today,
he thought, and it wasn't just
his colouring that was off.
He just didn't remember himself
to have that many arms
no matter how hard he tried
or how often he counted.

Tree Of Life
Tree Of Life, Acrylics on CanvasOn the 23rd August, 2009 is my 50th birthday.
This is always a good time to be reflecting on one's life and works, and this Art Solutions painting depicts the wandering ways of my time.
The background is numerous layers of iridescent gold which doesn't translate well into a jpg but I have seen the original and can attest to the fact that it is quite stunning.
Happy Birthday!

These fairy photographs have not been altered, enhanced or photoshopped in any way.
I was frankly amazed they came out!

It started out with "the deep" being black - but then, all these sparkling objects emerged - very nice indeed :-)

Brickworld - Life Will Find A Way
I've been working too hard recently and needed something to chill me out and pick me up.
As always, the wonderworlds came to my rescue and directed me to a wonderful experience with the power of life to survive in the most challenging and alien environments.
I found this really inspirational and also, deeply revitalising.
My gratitude, as always, to the Creative Order for this experience.
