a silent energy...

.... Women are connected by an umbilical that men cannot understand, see, or even comprehend; but we can sense it. The membrane of silent energy shared only within the feminine rule, is a unique macraméd net of magical awareness from which an unbelievable procreative power, survival awareness, reverberates universally.

Shared Burdens Among Strangers

.....emerged to be rather iconic once the shots were in the camera, I realized I had her dragging a long black drape, her salvation in the desert scorch.

Randy Newman would be proud....

"Go over there and turn on the light...no, all the lights. Raise your arms up in to the air...shake'em. Suspicious minds are talking, trying to tear us apart."

Do as I Say...Not as I Do

.....But this photograph was about so much more than that, a symbol of the 'double speak', and 'double standard' that has plagued women since the dawn of time.

Inspiration through the hourglass' sands of time

....the lines of the human form captured here, like perfect sand dunes in the Sahara, this photo embraces the sensual madness influencing the genius of the craftsmen as they meld the shapes of magnificent performance with absolute grace.

Love....the tie that unites us all

..... As mothers, or sisters, friends, or misunderstood enemies, lovers, or acquaintances passing through a portal of pleasure for an instant in time, love is their wound chord of gracious commonality. Love is 'Union'.

olly, olly oxen free......

.....hypocritical contempt riddled with human judgment, makes me giggle inside my creative well as the scriptures are adamant about only God may judge his people.

A little peek into our innermost primal core...

.... It has been more shocking to everyone who views my body of work than any other image, simply because it touches a core in everyone. It is primitive. It is extremely 'Primal'.

So what's "your" favorite color?

..... Sometimes serendipity moves into the creative equation and everything, or something, 'magically' happens.

Another nibble to whet your appetite....

.... Nothing has been tainted, she is flawless by design, and socially acceptable as long as no one uncoils the truth. Asymmetrical thinking is never permitted here, social perspective flawed by a very shallow depth of field, all safe as long as no one finds the loose ends.

Your first nibble.....

....Whether a relationship, job, life itself, fear, whatever the object of despair, sometimes catastrophe disrupts life, sometimes it creates a new resolve. But not for anyone who still has their head on though, but rather a silly solution for people who might come from Planet Claire.

A Little Taste of What's to Come.....

Each of the 36 pieces in the exhibit have a story which will unfold right before your eyes, hanging alongside each image when the show opens on Friday, Aug 26th.  You'll be able to read about the artist's preconceived vision, the artist's discoveries along the way, learn a little about some of the models, and the story that unfolded with each finished piece.

During this final week leading up to the show's opening, I will be sharing some of the stories behind the images to be exhibited in the show....just a few words from the artist himself....Check back frequently to get a little taste of what's to come.
