'lilith's room ...' is open and waiting for visitors!

My installation 'lilith's room ...' is now installed, and is ready and waiting for visitors.  

When you arrive in the gallery 'lilith ...' will beckon you to her unique room where a feast in blue and white awaits you.  'lilith's room ...' is a safe place to daydream and disappear, to wonder what and where you are and in this environment, what would you do??

I have created a dedicated blog page for this installation where I plan to post more photos, videos and further information about this piece.  Also I encourage you to leave any thoughts or comments on that page. 

thank you and peace ~

so this is happening ...

Earlier this year I was invited to have a solo exhibition at the Anderson Gallery at Bridgewater State University.  When touring the gallery space I was told that I could paint on the walls which made my heart jump for joy.  

One of my favorite exhibits had been my installation 'this comes from within ...' which was staged at Michael Dowling's Medicine Wheel, back in 2009.  For this piece I covered the walls of the gallery with what I now refer to as my 'intuitive line painting'. So when I was presented with the option of painting on the gallery's walls I jump at it.

Instead of covering the entire gallery I decided to concentrate on one side of the gallery, creating a space centered around my sculpture, 'lilith in blue ...' For this installation I have covered a desk, a medicine cabinet, a rocking horse and a hanging panel of fabric, along with numerous knick-knacks, with my 'intuitive line painting' in blue and white, to create 'lilith's room ...'  

I am very excited about this installation.  I have been painting the components in my studio for the past few months and wish to share a few of the 'in process' photos and videos here.

a quick look at how I create the particular line quality for my 'intuitive line painting'

a colleague suggested that my process creates a look similar to batik.

This is quite an undertaking so watch this space as there is more to come ...

thank you and peace
