Back in the US I always loved being in the country better than city. That’s why in a past life I was a conservation officer, but since coming here to Moscow, one of the largest cities in the world, I can still get out in the countryside. The Russian countryside is so fascinating to me, so much to see, the wildlife, old churches, monasteries and boyar estates and the “Golden Ring” cities of Moscow are some of the most fascinating places that most tourists never get to see. This set of photos was taken around the city of Suzdal, also known as the “City of Churches.”

My lazy grey cat Smudge. He is an expert at sleeping and eating.
A soldier is a member of a nation’s military. The word soldier specifically refers to members of the army who are without officer’s commission. In most armies of the world, soldiers who are not officers can work their way through the ranks to obtain a commission. A soldier who no longer serves in the armed forces is often called a veteran, a term which can also apply to a long-serving or experienced soldier who is still in the army.
This is my cat. He thinks he is the most important thing on earth. You can see by his ears that he has had his scrapes. He is now 13 and still acts like a kitten at times. He is a great companion.

This whimsical mixed media drawing/painting was thematically inspired by the dreamlike works of Chagall. A giant folk art bird ambles amongst brightly colored flowers, under rain falling from a dark cloud comprised of a multitude of intricately-designed ink eyes. The vividly playful architectural forms on the left reference Russian minarets. On the right is a floating umbrella and an array of strangely-placed fish. This drawing is incredibly detailed. This piece is a fusion of my intensely-detailed black ink drawings and my equally-detailed colorful abstract work. The two come together in a rich marriage of style and energy. My abstract artwork is very process-oriented and carries a spiritual meaning related to the mystery of existence and a reverence for the unfolding process of life. The designs in this drawing arose spontaneously in a stream-of-consciousness manner. While working on drawings that are this detailed, I become so immersed in the work that drawing the images becomes a meditative process through which I strive to achieve balance amidst chaos (similar to the concept of mushin). The colors and designs arise spontaneously and reflect my interest in tribal and aboriginal art, specifically in the act of storytelling through nonrepresentational means. My abstract art is also heavily inspired by my world travels, particularly my visits to remote tribal villages in the Kutch region of India, as well as my visits to temples and roadside shrines in Sri Lanka, India, and Nepal.
