from the Diary of a Tree Standing On Its Head










Began in 2021, this painting is about the Hebrew prophet Zechariah, found in the Old Testament of the Bible, particularly the events of chapters 3 and 4 of his book. A limited number of archival reproductions of this painting are available at Baumwerkshop

My good friend Sam Kee wrote a nice essay about my little shepherd print. I marvel at how and what Sam sees in my art. If you want to read it it’s over at the Color of Dust Substack– no pay-wall. While Sam gives me more credit than I deserve, he truly helps me to see what I am, sometimes blindly, about. Every artist should be so fortunate to have friends who are willing to engage their work on such a deep level. Somehow I have more than a handful of them and I’m mighty grateful.
I’ve also released a second edition of this print for sale over at Baumwerkshop.com if you are interested. The stock might be low at the moment but there are more coming.

John Moriarty describes a dream in which he hears a knock on his door late at night. He opens the door to the incarnation of the constellation of Orion. Orion as a representative of the whole Universe has come to deliver a message to John (as a representative of humanity?), concerning the accumulation of everything which humanity has believed about the Universe, well, the Universe doesn’t recognize themself in any of it.
This drawing is part of The Diary of a Tree Standing on it’s Head series I’ve been working on.

I also decided to make some prints of this one. They are for sale here at Baumwerkshop.com
