One half of all net proceeds (50%) are going to The Cougar Fund / / Those who may prefer a more traditional photograph can view the original image by going HERE / / “Puma concolor: / The Latin name for the cat of many names Cougar. Catamount. Painter. Panther. Ghost cat. Puma. Mountain lion. In speaking of the many names of cougar, one folktale tells the story of Native Americans who would bring pelts to trade in what is now New York City. When the Europeans and white settlers would question why all only skins of females (given the lack of manes) were brought for trade, the Native Americans explained that the males lived far away in the mountains, playing a joke of sorts on the naïve newcomers—this is why cougars, who are not specific to mountain regions at all, came to be known as “mountain lions”. The etymological history of the word cougar comes from French naturalist-explorer Count Georges-Louis Leclerc Buffon, who called Puma concolor “cuougar”. This usage was derived from the Brazilian Portugese word cuguacuarana, which in turn came from the Tupi Indian word susuarana, which means “false deer”. We find that this word aptly captures the international allure and cross-cultural nature of the species, while distinguishing our organization from a popular brand of athletic shoes—Puma. Erie as in Erie Canal, Erie Street and Erie Boulevard were named after Lake Erie which in turn was named after the Indian people who lived along the lake’s southern shore, an area where cougars were abundant. The cougars there were called Erielhonan, meaning “long tail” and the Native Americans living there were called Erie or Cat Nation. In 1600, some 14,000 Eries lived in villages between what is now Buffalo, NY and Sandusky, Ohio. In 1656, the Erie were almost exterminated by the Iroquois League. The surviving captives were either adopted or enslaved. Symbolism, Lore and Native American Experience with Cougar “Ghostwalker” The spirit of the Cougar chose to take the earth and walk as a spiritual hunter, to teach unconditional leadership, patience and determination. “The strengths they represent have a powerful lesson for those that are willing to learn from them” -Nancy Wood Taber, artist According to animal totem lore, cougar is the energy of leadership. If we listen to Cougar we learn to become the leader that people follow by choice, not by force. Cougar has the wisdom to lead through love, not through fear. Cougar is a take-charge totem or energy. Cougar people are such natural leaders that others tend to take their leadership for granted. If no one else is leading, cougar will naturally take over. Cougar is graceful and balances intention, strength and responsibility. Others are always safe when cougar is in charge. The cougar is very elusive and is rarely encountered in the wild. Because of this quality, cougar can appear without being noticed and quietly take control of a situation. Sometimes this can lead to conflict with others over territory. It is often noted as an animal that is independent, shy and withdrawn. The same characteristics are often found in people with this medicine. Cougar is associated with leadership and teaches decisiveness in the use of personal power. When it attacks it does not hesitate. When threatened it goes for the most vulnerable place. Cougar is not often allowed to show vulnerability. True leadership through gentle assertiveness is what cougar teaches those with this totem. Cougar people are often very sure of themselves, not taking any unnecessary steps or exerting any extra energy beyond what is required of them to achieve their goal. Most cougars learn by trial and error, which strengthens them and hones their skills. In life, cougar people may find that others will not like these assertions. Cougar people mustn’t allow others to keep them stationary—cougar people stretch their muscles and show their capabilities. Those with the cougar medicine are often attacked by others, especially by those who have grown comfortable with the status quo and do not wish to see those who have this totem grow. Even still, they may never admit when a cougar person does grow. A cougar will leap at opportunities. Those with cougar medicine take control of their life and circumstances most effectively.” ~Excerpt from The Cougar Fund The Eastern cougar, native to states in North America East of the MIssissippi River, is gone from over 99% of it’s range and is listed as an endangered species of critical status.

Series: New Zealand White Island, Bay of Plenty, New Zealand Test your senses; bright yellows, pungeant smells that make your nose crinkle in disgust and force you to reach for your gas mask. Constant hissing and burping. Softly floating ash. Loud rumblings from the bowels of the earth. It’s pretty scary stuff! The only live marine volcano and the largest volcanic structure in NZ…...White Island is 70% undersea! She floats 48 kms out, in the beautiful Bay of Plenty. About 150,000 years old and built by continuous volcanic activity. Today, this old girl’s activity is constantly monitored by the Institute of Geological and Nuclear Sciences (IGNS). When we visited the IGNS helicopter flew in and landed. The doors flung out and people in strange suits exploded from within. They ran to their places on top of the crater and started to work, concentrating hard on their tasks. We watched, intently, for about an hour. Their concentration was so intence, I doubt they even knew we were there. They performed with precision – it’s the closest I’ll ever come to a moon landing! The island is currently on a level 1 alert; she’s always active and constantly spewing forth steam, sulphur and lots of other volcanic “stuff”. At her heart, she has a deep, steaming lake. She takes pride of place at the tip of NZs “chain of fire”; a 250 km long chain of highly active volcano’s extending from her (White Island), to Ruapehu in the centre of the north Island. A walk on her shores is indeed a walk on the wild side.

/ “The Two” is part of the Flower Collection...Watercolour on Sennelier Paper… You are the town and we are the clock. / We are the guardians of the gate in the rock / The Two / On your left and on your right / In the day and in the night, / We are watching you. We’re afraid in that case you’ll have a fall. / We’ve been watching you over the garden wall / For hours. / The sky is darkening like a stain / Something is going to fall like rain / And it won’t be flowers. This might happen any day / So be careful what you say / Or do. / Be clean, be tidy, oil the lock, / Trim the garden, wind the clock, / Remember the Two. W.H. Auden

This is another old painting that wasn’t all that great. I re-worked it and added a few things, changes around the colors and took away a bit of over worked parts. I did this one the same time I did Moonlit. This was a very wonderful model named Sandra, she was from Germany. my biggest regret was I could not pay her, she was so good and stayed a long time. Where ever she is now, I wish her well! This was Air brush painted in photo shop with Sandra as the model. all the clothing is my idea, the props are from my home and some from my head. tho a photograph was used as a portrait guide, NO photograph is in this art. / / Copyright / These Images and Writings Do Not Belong To ANY Public Domain.

This series of steps leads up from The Side towards a gated wall. This area of Newcastle near the river, was part of the original crossing point and lead up in to the upper parts of the city. It is now also famous for the Side Gallery , a little gem of both a building and photographic gallery. The wear of the steps bear witness that the remains of houses and business that once thrived here, once had happier days. Converted in to black and white
