Ascent of the Light
In Ascent of Light, a white phoenix rises
from a violet pond. The earth force awakens,
turning toward the light in the celebratory
movement of ascent. Like the phoenix and
winged horse, we, too, can ascend through
the powerful beauty of light.

Afternoon Light
The deep afternoon light of summer speaks
through clouds of blue, violet, yellow and
pink. Beyond the clouds lingers a great
light, it shapes the clouds. Alignment with
the singular light --through moments of
tranquility -- lends insight into the
spectacular geometry of our “being”.

toward a greater light that transcends the

above, so below” through the imagery of the
six pointed star. The upper portion of the
star denotes the Creator, the as the One,
and the lower portion symbolizes the

ten thousand forms. As a messenger, the
angel sends the divine statement forth to
those who perceive it. |

Blossoming Lotus
The lotus is a symbol of the soul; it rises
from the mud or the shadow part of our
being. Cleansed and nourished by the purity
of water or higher emotion, the emerging
lotus blossoms. Light nurtures the pure
beauty of the blossom as it opens to the
world. |

Celestial Sunrise
The world awakens to the fiery pulse of
the sun. Angels fan the flames, directing
the sun’s passionate rays toward the earth.
The sun shares its life force with all; it
symbolizes the objective nature of Light. |

Enlightened Rainbow
The rainbow is a symbolic representation
of the seven rays of color that comprise the
One Light. We are all part of the one Light,
just as the seven colors of the rainbow are
part of one light -- white light. When white
light is refracted, we see the intense
beauty of color. Behind the light, there is
love. |

still waters. The mythical creature,
representing the power of the horse, the
power of heart, and the magical forces of
the air, floats toward the light amidst a
forest, blossoming trees and a gentle pond. |

Flowering of Life
As love and light – two powerful
universal forces – merge, life is born.
Elegantly and exquisitely, life forms from
sacred geometry. The intrinsic patterns,
colors and shapes form a flower, a simple
and complex creation of life. |

Full Lotus
The lotus opens as a symbolic representation
of the soul or one’s higher nature. As we
open to the qualities of our soul, the
Universe answers, with an outpouring of
light as a response. This blossoming
symbolizes the merging of individual
consciousness with universal or God
consciousness. |

Levitation
Having successfully traversed the zigzag
path of life, a great light lifts the weary
traveler – it lifts her from the tumultuous
sea of emotion into an elated, elevated
state of being. She raises her hands
ecstatically, as part of the experience of
“being light”.

Shiva Dancing
The Hindu god of destruction, Shiva, dances
in a delicate garden. This painting is an
expression of the beauty of the darkness or
the night of the soul. The elements of the
personality -- all discordant energies--
must be discarded on the journey of the
soul. The garden represents the place of
creation, of harmony with the One, which
will be approached again after the garments
of the Old Self have been surrendered. |

Star of Dawn
The Star of Dawn shines through the darkness
of night, welcoming us to the break of the
morning, shining just before the sun rises.
The light is always with us, present even in
the darkest moment that falls before the
dawn. |

Wynn Lake
Wynn Lake is a reflection of the flowing
energies of nature, in a majestic, graceful
expression of natural forces. The forces of
nature speak to the heart and strengthen our
bodies and souls through simple beauty,
through the reflection of the sun on the
water and the light as it sparkles through
the trees. If we truly look, then we will be
nourished. |
