"Intersections"
$3,500.00

I am fascinated with these intersecting, meandering, fractally exploding "lines". They criss-cross space and each other making incredible jigsaw shapes of bright beaming sky light. This magnificent tree stands at the intersection of 3 highways in Kailua, Hawaii.

"This Way to the Beach"
$3,000.00

What more can I say?
It's Waimanalo, Hawaii.

As a child,
I remember copying favorite cartoon characters from my comic books.
Later, I explored sacred geometry, the grid, topology, fractals,
confounding isometric interlacements and mystifying optical illusions. 
These steps marked the path of learning a new alphabet​,
a dramatic visual language with a special grammar and graphical syntax --
Line... Shape... Form... Texture... Perspective... Composition... Scale...
Motion...  Space... and, ultimately, Meaning and Connection.
Along the way, add in the magic of Color, the nature of Light, the miracle of Perception...and Imagination.
