I've got this book at home that has a bunch of ancient symbols and artifacts,
SACRED SYMBOLS
edited by Robert Adkinson :
I can go through these pages for what seems like ever and I will often find something that sparks my imagination. I tend to draw a lot from what humans have experienced & accomplished, from stories and history and dreams. It makes me feel like I am a part of this larger exchange and a passing of knowledge and ideas. I also wonder what is to come of my efforts... if there will be elements of myself in futures to come.. And if not, wteverz... something beautiful about the fleeting ;)
My "Doorways" series got started from an image in said book.
Which then became the muse of the first painting in my "Doorways" series.
But me , being me, ended up painting over most of these paintings. I'm hoping to resurrect these pieces, bring them into photoshop maybe and polish 'em up a bit...
Which doorway will open next...
