understanding
of human nature that was matched by a brilliant technique.

BACK TO SCHOOL
September
has turned the corner, the school bell beckons the children, the first
day back is new above all others, the schoolhouse a place for children
to create and discover themselves. Still
sits the old schoolhouse at the end of the road where the dawning of
knowledge welcomes the children as they return back to school.

BACK TO THE BARN
The
rustic pastoral scenery beckons and calls through the soughing wind,
bringing back barnyard inhabitants to their rural home. A short jaunt
through the fertile, lush, verdant fields and then back to the barn to
the serenity, tranquility, and quietness of complete contentment and
equanimity.

BACKPACKING WITH MY DOG
Sweet
summer breeze, the afternoon laughs out, the glowing rays of sun, the
ripe blossom of flowers, the venture into the summer day backpacking
with my dog. Warm winds create a magic draught
in summer’s cup, the idleness is gathered in, the quietude of earth and
air surrounds us, as I go backpacking with my dog.

BEAUTIFUL BALLOON
The
world's a nicer place in my beautiful balloon,
It wears a nicer face in
my beautiful balloon,
We can sing a song and sail along the silver sky,
For we can fly, up, up and away.
Love is waiting there in
my beautiful balloon,
Way up in the air in my beautiful balloon,
If
you'll hold my hand we'll chase your dream across the sky,
For we can
fly, up, up and away.

BERWICK’S
WATERWHEEL
Purple heather by
the old mill, the waterwheel turning
impatiently,
it never rests. Behind the barn we stand as boys and hatch new plans
for
summer days. Courageous words, so full of hope, how
soon we will be touching those sassy, feisty buds of Spring.

BOTERO COUPLE
Botero
depicts women, men, daily life, historical events and characters,
milestones of art, still-life, animals and the natural world in
general, with exaggerated and disproportionate volumetry, accompanied
by fine details of scathing criticism, irony, humor, and ingenuity.

BOTERO PICNIC
Fernando
Botero takes us and his
characters to an idyllic picnic spot. El senor is meditatative while la
senorita is fast asleep. The parameters of proportion in Botero’s world
are
innovative and almost always surprising.

BRADBURY
BUNGALOW
Peaceful our
valley, fair and green, and beautiful her
cottages. Each
in its nook, its sheltered hold, or guarded by its tuft of trees. There
lies my beloved Bradbury Bungalow. Many
and
beautiful they are, but there is one that I love best, my Bradbury
Bungalow.

BUFFALO
MAIDEN
She came with the
Sacred Pipe, dressed in quills of the rainbow with
her ancient Buffalo Spirit by her side, to teach us to be one with the
Above and Below. She walked around in circles to
represent
endless life and told us she would return. As she walked away we saw
her
turn from the Buffalo Maiden into the mist of the White Buffalo Spirit.

CALL
TO FREEDOM
The wind moans in
the tall pines, and rushes through the
forest, our
spirits fly into the night, soaring through the wind, our call to
freedom
summons the Ancient Ones. The winds of life blow in four
directions, the sacred waters flow to the sea, our call to freedom will
be heard.

THE
CALLING
The fire is
dancing, the winds are talking, dancers from past
lives
enter the circle, the mind searches as the spirit dances.
There is a road in the hearts of
all
of us, hidden and seldom traveled, which leads to an unknown, secret
place.

CASTLES BY THE SEA
From
the beach, sandy walls rise,
Turrets reach up to touch the skies.
A tiny moat dissolves the keep,
Pavers are strong, though only two inches
deep.
Tiny footprints embedded in the sand,
Where
once a child there did stand,
The castles’ grace and beauty a short
time will last,
Before the sea washes them into the past.

CATCHING THE WIND
Out
on the open deck, salt air permeating the breeze, dreams of what lies
ahead on the deep blue horizon, magnificent sea creatures swimming
along just below the waves, waiting for the glorious sunset to cast its
golden net over a tranquil sea, setting sail, listening to the silence,
catching the wind.

COTTAGE
BY THE BAY
Peaceful our bay,
serene and blue, and beautiful our cottage,
nestled
in its nook, its sheltered hold, looking out over the gentle waves.
Precious the shelter of that bay, it screens
the cottage that I love, that cottage that summons my heart, my cottage
by the bay.

COUNTRY COMFORT
The
fields are green with sweet clover and a gold promise of grain, the
cows lazily graze in green pastures, such comfort the country breathes
into the soul. The cool bubbling brook snakes its way
along, tall trees weave their shadows, the farm lies in quiet repose,
the comfort of the country beckons with a hush and harmony.

THE CREATION
OF ADAM
Michelangelo
Buonarroti, 1475-1564,
is one of the greatest artists of all time, a man whose name has become
synonymous with the word "masterpiece". As an artist he was unmatched,
the creator of works of sublime beauty
that
express the full breadth of the human condition.

DASH FOR THE
TIMBER
Frederick
Remington, 1861-1909, devoted
himself to recording with great care and enthusiasm the colourful and
exciting
saga of the American frontier. His
important
role in American art was well summarized by Theodore Roosevelt: “The
soldier,
cowboy and rancher, the Indian, the horse and cattle of the plains will
live in his pictures, I verily believe, for all time.”
All standard theme elements as
well as
western
font.
DIES IRAE
Michelangelo created an image
of
absolute finality in the Dies Irae: the gesture of Christ the Judge,
separating
the saved from the damned. In this image of a suspended chaos
between
Heaven and Hell, we can sense the presence of a higher intelligence.

Chapel, icons,

DREAM
CATCHER
Grandmother Spider
went to the willow tree and asked him for his beautiful
branches. She went to the Eagle and asked him for his powerful feather.
She then bent the branches of the willow into a circle connecting all
the
people of the world. She spun her web of wisdom around the willow
branches
to catch her children's bad dreams. Grandfather Sun's morning
rays
burned away the bad dreams tangled in the web. Any bad dreams that were
left were turned into the morning dew. These dreams trickled down the
length
of the Eagle feather and were given to the Earth.

ENCHANTED MOMENTS
A
sympathetic glow ran through my melting soul, and calm and sweet
delight stole over all my senses, and through my heart a grateful flood
of joy rolled on. Time flew unheeded by, till wearied I
laid me down to rest upon a flowery bank, a purling stream ran
glittering in the noontide sun.
