Art From the Future

For this series, I began with acrylic and gold leaf on canvas. When I became aware of the capabilities of the computer, I added images of stars and galaxies taken by the Hubble Telescope and photographs of nature I took.

Art must have meaning. It must have the ability to evoke a relationship with what the viewer can dream and accomplish. Otherwise, art is just decoration. I want to change this decorative view of art to something that has meaning and inspiration in individual lives.

As a student in the Ramtha School of Enlightenment, I initially created these images to inspire myself on my spiritual journey. This series of images came from the visions of what I have learned with Ramtha and they are not just images, but something I want actually to experience. I am grateful to my friends who believed in what I was doing and encouraged me to bring my images to others. It is an honor that others have found these images inspiring to the accomplishment of their own spiritual journey.

The future is open and unknown and I will continue to search there to bring forward both images and experiences – for myself and for all who are in pursuit of a greater life.
