Joseph Campbell states that one of the roles of the artist is the
“mythologization of the world and the environment”.
I am pretty sure that I have been doing that most of my life.
All my mythic creatures come with a legend card - the beginning of their story which they hope will continue forward when they arrive at their new homes.

Thank you to everyone who attended the Northampton Paradise City Arts Festival over Memorial Day Weekend and stopped by my booth . Kanyini, the platypus, enjoyed meeting you. It was wonderful to see so many friends... and to be in such a creative environment with such positive, creative energy - a much-needed respite for both artists and attendees alike! I came away with ideas for new work as well as renewed energy to stand up and oppose all the negative forces blocking creativity and understanding. Have a grea summer... I'll be busy in studio and making stubborn ounces count in the street
