Out in the darkness of outer space floats a female android. Her head tilts forward and her cool blue eyes look out as she motions toward us. Who lies behind this layer of robotic powered armour and what shape will her face take when the mask is revealed?
"Unlike metamorphosis, in shape-shifting there is no progressive development, but a fluid slide into one or another aspect of psyche; temporary, protean and intended to hide as much as to reveal. Unlike complete transformation, shape-shifting doesn't alter essentials." - The Book of Symbols |

This painting titled 'Puppet' is an active imagination of a dream sketch dated 4th January, 2012 of the same title. The painting depicts a cool, open rocky landscape, and in it stands poised a female, cladded in robotic armor. Why has she halted to this spot and what has captured her attention? Armour both protects and obscures an individuals identity. When we mask ourselves it transforms us, evoking a more confident image and providing temporary housing for the gods. |

A primordial like creature emerges, looming upon a hill top. With gaping mouth full of razor teeth, it roars between two threating tusks. What chaos and destruction lies ahead of this creature as it pushes forward?
"At the ceremony of the 'Weighing of the Heart of the dead', the monster Ammit, a combination of crocodile, lion and hippopotamus, swallows the heart that has failed to achieve the psychic balance pleasing to Maat, the underlying order of the universe that brings to either chaos and cosmos in right proportion." - The Book of Symbols |

'Anima Tension'
oil on canvas
15" x 20"
Poised proud upon an open vista stands a heroic female. Dressed in a skin tight black outfit and thick boots, the open wind blows through her hair. Who is this masked female warrior? Is she on the side of good or evil?
"On wind we have projected the unpredictable factor that moves us and carries us, sometimes directing our course or forcing us to change course." - The Book of Symbols
