Second main stage of this painting done. Bright fall leaves are next! I'm not sure yet but I think that I make this a part of an ongoing series called This Great Land. This one is Campbell Valley Regional Park.

Vision, Purpose, Path.

Here are some more images that I created to define vision, purpose and path for Again Visual Art & Concepts.

Waiting on the edge of line and fall.

Love is unlike anything you've ever known. The beginning of forever.

It's all new now.

Who would you be if you were fully loved?

Photo taken in Paia, Maui.

Is pure love. Grace upon grace. Unending patience. Raw beauty. Innovative imagination. Exploration. Success. Failure. Getting up and trying again every single day. Alive through the breath and blood of God.

The Beginning of Forever

Hey guys, I've spent some time in Mextures and Over creating images that convey the purpose and meaning of Again Visual Art. Hope you like 'em!

Traversing the planes of existence.

Trembling under the weight of eternity.

Burning in the space between my heart and yours.

The most delicate instrument is the heart.

This is a photo I took a little while ago. I was sitting on these stairs and all of the sudden noticed the diagonal lines and the tree shadows and how they worked together.

Pretty close to being done here! I don't know yet but I think I will call it "We're Leaving Our Shadows Behind Us Now", which are lyrics from the song "The Projectionist" by Sleeping At Last (you can buy it on itunes).

This is it from the reverse side. It has more depth from the back so I think I'll present it that way!

Projects on the go!

Hey guys, here's a few things that are going on right now.

I'm going to do a really quick graphic on this old board just for fun. I'm going to make a large stencil of the swallow from "I Have A Light And A Love" but give it some phoenix-like characteristics. When in Rome...

A little progress on the scene from the park in Langley.

I'm not sure what to call this yet. It is part of (but a divergence from) the Recognition series. Thanks Luke for the pencils!

A different angle.

I've started a couple of new projects, and have finally been able to try out oils! I have really, really liked it so far. The rocks (only sketched) are a scene from chilliwack lake, the sky and tree is from a park in langley.

Finally completed this! Finished at 62 hours. Zoom in to see some details like gold in the hair and stuff like that.

A really fun collage I finished for Christmas.
