MOTH and butterfly. Winged journeys that have survived the chaotic osmosis of having everything turn into a pool of what no longer works, blanketed in a nourishing cocoon, and then given an ornate set of wings to rise up, to rise above it all. Over and over again, in us, all around us, that alchemical process that promises a redemption, a new start, a new perspective that opens up new realms of experience and existence. ""MOTH Transmutation"" artwork was created to illustrate that magnificent and terrifying evolutionary process. The artwork began in a pen and ink / black and white illustration which was designed to be silk screened. Next, the polarities of black and white are thrust into an expanded vision of watercolor, where they move into cards, prints and sticker art. The moth was created with a tabernacle core, as she holds her inner self as the sacred vessel retaining her her authentic nature.

Doll dresses created from fabric printed with imagery from""Plant Bee Medicine"" and ""Mycelium Portal"". Stacks of silkscreened t-shirts embracing the ceremony of handprinted artwork onto fabric, the merging of patience, intentional art and utilitarianism. Photos taken at the Ballard Sunday Farmers Market, where the tshirts are sold at a Seattle street market. Hand made coat lined with the ""Orphic Egg Bee"" artwork / tapestry.

The sage green printed with navy, burgundy or black ink. The ringer t-shirt printed with any design in red ink. ""Mushroom Bee" and ""Mushroom Fractal 2222"" artwork expressing both the intentional use of psychedelics and the nutritious immunity food properties of the mushroom.
