2006 Inktomi 1 part 1


close up of 2006 Inktomi Oil on Canvas. 6" X 8". 12" X 16" overall. Earth Shakers Wind Makers know the true story of our Nation. I will call it here "The Rise of the Spider Nation". Interestingly enough we (the West) have focused ourselves and our world on the virtual WEB - the Internet. We had to separate and segregate the New World with our fences of wood and metal (barbed wire) weaving an ever widening web across the land that seems to me, the Creator had made to be free and open. So much for progress my friends. As with many of my recent work this is a world wind of images locked together in it's boundaries yet unbridled in it's execution. Bringing forth images from different times together in a multi-dimensional composition. You have to settle down and slow yourself to see them but they are there. Many times you will see animal and human figures (horses, buffalo, owls, cowboys, soldiers) all sorts of characters. The landscape is alive with energy and these intertwined, interconnected icons are both hidden and revealed in the torrent of time only as one can slow their thoughts and focus their mind. Consider it my challenge to you to see through the veil. As you do so may you find your truth. As this is just part of the story. rjk
