"Every living thing contributes to the beauty of all life. You are beautiful and a part of the magnificent jamboree of beauty that encompasses all things." This painting is part of a solo exhibition at New Visions Gallery in Marshfield Wi. The title of the exhibition is "Allegories from the Earth." This work " Earths Jamboree" is part of a year's long research into the allegories from the earth. I dug into the concepts of earth's spirits and the songs of the earth, past, present, and future. And I tried to blur the lines of earth's histories, past, present, and the future, and stories about the earth between diverse cultures. I tried to illustrate how these stories carried on through generations fuses old with new and the hopeful future. My work mixes soul versus machine in these cultures and more directly into the fine arts. I am finding deep spiritual inspiration and affirmation in my art and its connection to the spirits and songs
