Did I slip into a parallel universe? I woke up today and things have changed. Apparently I have a cat.
And a teenage granddaughter living with me.
Too many cars in my driveway. My studio building has been converted into a rental property and people are living there – my daughter and family. They’ve got dogs and puppies. Do […]
The move to the new studio is complete and a blank canvas beckons.
I may have had the vision already and maybe it is yet to come as I work, but every new canvas is an intimidating invitation to creativity.
And not just a blank canvas but also a freshly painted wall and pristine floor.
I am hesitating to get […]
It’s not a big secret that I get inspiration from astronomical pictures from the Hubble Space Telescope and even use them liberally in my digital collage prints. (It’s all ok. They are paid for by tax dollars and therefore in the public domain.)
I guess we all reach an age when simplification, consolidation and downsizing is an appropriate energy dynamic to step into.
I’m a little wary of that because I want to continue expanding my awareness and artistic vision and building new neuro-networks in my aging brain.
None the less, I have decided to give up my studio building and convert […]
Inyo is a Paiute word for “where dwells the Great Spirit.”
At a time of personal crisis, the context for my artwork was gifted to me by the higher spirits on a three-day fasting Vision Quest in the Inyo National Forest in the high desert of California.
Up there alone in the mountains, I was impressed by […]
In the rush to announce the winning entry earlier this week, I neglected to say anything about why I picked “Fibonacci’s Eye”.
Fibonacci was a 13th-century mathematician that popularized the system of written numbers that we use today. He is probably best known now among Sacred Geometry aficionados.
I use many spirals in my artwork and […]
I’m pleased to announce that “Fibonacci’s Eye” submitted by Peter Lyle is selected from almost 50 entries to win the print.
Peter submitted his suggestion on my Facebook page You can see all the suggestions there.
Thanks, Peter, for the great title and to everyone else that made suggestions!
Sometimes the hardest part in creating art is coming up with a good title that is engaging and gives insight into my process or invites contemplation. I’m looking for fresh titles.
So…
Give your ideas for a title for this print. The winner is entirely up to me and will receive a free print provided they have a domestic USA […]
Thanks to the folks at Empty Easel for the kind review. David Copson: Ethereally Abstract Mixed Media Paintings
Artist David Copson hails from a family of scientists and excelled in math as a student. His heart, however, pulled him toward art, and in particular, printmaking. After 10 years spent in New York City working as a technical director at Atelier […]
Have you ever had the insight that a dollar bill has absolutely no inherent value or meaning other than what we attribute to it? It’s just some ink on a small piece of paper.
Even the specific patterns of the ink on the paper – the numbers, words, and pictures – only have meaning when we agree that […]
Happy to be back in touch with everyone – not to mention back in the studio – and hope you are having a great summer too. I feel better than I have in a long time and thank you all for your many good wishes.
I am excited to let you know that my website is completely upgraded with presentation […]
