Charcoal drawing, photo and Apophysis layers Gaia – she is rising they shovelled her screams into the pit of silence / and told her nothing was wrong / but she is waking they told her beauty was skin shaven clean / and denuded her of her undergrowth / but she is remembering encased in her corset of asphalt, they dressed her / in roads and cities for their pleasure / but she is rising she is rising like the mist on a clear, cold morning / millennia of sleep fall away from her like grieving / in the light of her regard nothing keeps its meaning / Gaia – she is rising

Pastel drawing with Apophysis overlays “Horses In My Dreams” Horses in my dreams / Like waves, like the sea / They pull out of here / They pull, they are free / Rode a horse round the world / Along the tracks of a train / Broke the record, found the gold / Set myself free again / I have pulled myself clear / I have pulled myself clear / I have pulled myself clear / Silent, I have pulled myself clear / Horses in my dreams / Like waves, like the sea / On the tracks of a train / Set myself free again / I have pulled myself clear / I have pulled myself clear / I have pulled myself clear / Silent, I have pulled myself clear P J Harvey

Pastel drawing, collage, photo and Apophysis layers a longing for your arms layers of silence one after another / peeling the onion – waiting for you / in the stillness of reverie there is only surrender / I open my fist to let you come through how many times can I come to this water / ask the same question – feel the same pain / and how many times can I come to surrender / and ask that the water will take me again it’s an old returning – the lesson still to be learned / and in the ache of separation a longing for your arms / a longing for your arms no other lover could be so familiar / no other lover / could touch me like you / until that moment of total surrender / no other lover will do but you it’s an old returning – the lesson still to be learned / and in the ache of separation / a longing for your arms / a longing for your arms / a longing for your arms

Crown Jewel ~ inspired by the Taj Mahal, which is often referred to as / ‘Poetry in Stone’ The History of Lost Love / Shah Jahan of the Mogul dynasty was yet to accede the throne when he heard about the unsurpassed beauty of Mumtaz. He took Mumtaz as his third wife in 1612. For the next 18 years Shah Jahan and Mumtaz were inseparable. Shah Jahan took his wife along on every journey and war campaign. Over the years Mumtaz came to be his best friend, his critic and a canny political adviser. Mumtaz was expecting their 14th child when Shah Jahan embarked on a campaign against the Lodhi Empire in 1631. In the heat of the Indian summer, the army traveled to the Deccans. Mumtaz, who had accompanied the emperor, went through a rigorous childbirth. She died in Burhanpur. On her deathbed, she asked her husband to promise her that he would build a monument to their love. Legend has it that he locked himself in his room for eight days without food after Mumtaz passed away. After burying Mumtaz temporarily in Burhanpur, Shah Jahan went about constructing the Taj Mahal in right earnest. He summoned the best architects and artisans from far away lands like Multan, Kannauj, Lahore, Iraq and Persia. He arranged for the best marble from all around. It took 22 years, 22,000 people, 400 elephants and 32 million rupees to build the Taj Mahal. The result: an awe-inspiring structure, which is one of the most globally recognized symbols of grace and beauty. The Magnificent Monument / Built on a raised, square platform it is as tall as a 20-storey building. You enter through an imposing gateway. The complex consists of an elaborate garden set in the typical charbagh style, a mosque, a guesthouse and several other charming buildings. The mausoleum itself stands at the farthest end of the complex, right along the Yamuna River. The signature central dome (58 ft in diameter and 213 ft high) is truly magnificent and is echoed in the smaller domed chambers on all sides. The four slender minarets that rise from the corners of the mausoleum complete the picture of symmetry. The undisputed majesty and beauty is further reflected in the exquisite artistry created by inspired artisans from Baghdad, Shiraz and Bukhara. Exquisite floral patterns and calligraphy on both the exterior and interior were inlaid with precious stones such as jasper and agate. Quotations from the Koran were etched into stone archways; a pinnacle was set on the central dome; and thus came to life the most splendid resting place a lover could ever hope to find on this planet! By Ravi Kunjithai / Beautiful intricate abstract design bursting forth in hues of light blue and gray, yellow / orange, and even a hint of rose, all interspersed with lovely metalic golds.

The two tattoos on his upper arms and on is back under the raven is the sun rising over water. He got those latter in life after a near- death experience with the mob. A native American boy about his age named David Red feather and his grandfather pulled him out of the river. It was a your typical “wack” hit, cement boots and all. While drowning in the river Mitch sees his dead father (who was a good man) and he speaks to him stating how he needs to change his ways and that there is more to life than what is on this earth. They mean, “The Son rises above”. The “water” is a series of tiger stripes. this represents his spirit animal a side of himself he must learn to control or he will forever be in the dark world of the dead, as explained to him by David’s Grandfather a spirit reader. He also tell Mitch what his father thinks of his past life. As David and his grandfather nurse Mitch back from the dead he begings to take a great intrest in who they are and what they are about… but it’s hard to teach an old dog new tricks, even if he thinks he wants to learn. / / wall art / / Hombres Fatal
