ghosts of imaginary friends

 these last few months 

especially the weeks 

 and the days 

 have seemed like a collective challenge

and an experiment of how much one 

can endure

through all of this 

that is going on 

being in now 

in a world of uncertainties

for months

has found inspiration in visiting

imaginary friends , ghosts of the past

and memories of others

 Imaginary friend

these new pieces are quiet moments 

taking bits of contemplation

 to step away from the news of the world

 setting aside time 

 sitting in the studio each day

and visiting these friends 

the sky . one and two .

The other day .. working in the studio . painting the walls
with powder paint and gesso . organizing boxes . the light is just right
in the mornings . a little haze of shade from the half windows and the
pepper trees . paper walls with masking tape from an installation
a few years back .

The parallel worlds we are living in and have been .. are hovering over
us like . reminders of the fog and somewhere in the in between .

mixed media on paper . The sky one and two .

(~sounds from the back of my mind in the back of the studio)

all mine .

.. Eclipses , gray matter and parallels ..

I've been working on a few things in a corner 

of my workshop . 

Eclipses , translating shadows and 

gray matter .

Parallel places we travel to  

.. somewhere in the

back of our minds .
