Production begins....Living at 6,800 feet elevation in south Colorado is an excellent opportunity for observation of light and weather patterns. Water comes in many forms and is delivered to Earth by way of humidity, rain, dew, snow, hail, sleet, mist, etc. Sometimes the waters are calm, clean, and safe. Other times that same water boils and brews danger and evil spewing forth vile pollution. How do we know when we are safe? How do we know when the danger passes and the coast is clear? Where are the safe harbors during a tumultuous storm? How do we navigate the darkness? Where do we turn when the forces of darkness come to extinguish the light?
Beacon- noun. A signal light or illuminated object set up on high elevation to serve as a warning or helpful guide to navigate through danger or troubles. A source of light. A ray of encouraging hope that ignites inspiration.

April 22, 2019 EARTH DAY Click Illume to enter exhibition Statement: Except from “Nature” by Ralph Waldo Emerson. “The stars awaken a certain reference, because though always present they are in accessible; but all natural objects make a kindred impression, when the mind is open to their influence. Nature never wears a mean appearance. Neither does the wisest man share her secret, and lose his curiosity by finding out all her perfection. Nature never became a toy to a wise spirit. The flowers, the animals, the mountains, reflected the wisdom of his best hour, as such as they had delighted the simplicity of his childhood. Not the sun or the summer alone, but every hour and season yields its tribute of delight; For every hour and change corresponds to and authorizes a different state of the mind, from breathless noon to grimmest midnight in the woods is perpetual youth.” Yellow Rain Fiberglass, varnish, pigment 100cm x 300cm From the Rain Collection Created during spring fellowship at The Vermont Studio Center.
