Dharma Rain Series
Around 2005 I started working on a series of paintings and drawings that I titled Dharma Rain. While still using vibrant and multiple layers of color, the mood of these works is much quieter. The exuberant density of the earlier Biophilia paper pieces has given way to contemplative calm and quiet. The vertical motif of lines and drops/circles that is evident in most of the 48 inch square paintings symbolizes the beneficient rain that nourishes all beings. The series has become, in the broadest sense, an ode to the natural world and her place as spiritual sanctuary.
(Here are several examples from the series. I am still working on locating some of the photographs of the many other paintings in this particular series.)
