Tree of Perpetual Hope.

Glass Block 12 - Tree of Perpetual Hope. Digital. Here this tree has stood for a 1000 years. Will it be able to endure the wrath of modern humankind? Without our Love and Respect I fear not. Open your hearts, open your my people and see truly the world around us. And realize our place in it as caretakers or loose we will surely loose this greatest of gifts. the gift of home, our planet; the gift of life, our home, for without it we too will no longer endure as a species.

2006 Inktomi 1 part 2

close up of 2006 Inktomi Oil on Canvas. 6" X 8". 12" X 16" overall. T'was the night before Christmas 1873. They handed out wool blankets to all the could find. Laced with Scarlet fever I fear so that none would be left behind. Now early that Christmas morning not a creature was stirring not even a field mouse. For all were dead now at such a terrible cost.

The details are something for you to find out for yourself if you don't already know the truth. This Truth a small part of the Whole Truth that is not taught in America's traditional history classes. This would seem to be the first documented use of gem warfare used on Natives of our own land so many years ago. We forget as it was written down and hidden from most folks here.

Because the powers that be feared, thought that We The People might not like what we hear. So they changed and buried and twisted it all. So it sounded so nice and cheery and all. As ignorance is no excuse for wrong doing they say. So, I ask you now the next time that you look to judge others consider what terrible things have been done on your behalf, in the past, in the present or that might be made in the future. And be brave enough to take your neighbors hand and stand together and in a loud voice say I want no more of this. I want the America that We were taught to believe in. On that is guided by the Creator, one that seeks to do good work and help less fortunate. not a Industrial Military one bent on domination as the New Republic under the flag if Democracy. But a true Democracy willing to do what is Right, not in our best interest. But in the best interest of all humanity.

May your Christmas, or Hanahaka, Ramadan or whatever you might celebrate, be gay! As the World goes along on it's ignorant way. But be wary my friend, of blind faith I say, as it can lead to confusion and draw you astray. Astray from the Truth, not the one that they say. But the Truth that exists in every heart, the one less listened too. For if you don't, you might even end up thinking that you best friend is nay. And turn him away. To find out he was the reincarnate, Mohammad, Jesus, Buddha or other. not just your friend, your neighbor, your brother...

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
