"Umwelt" hanging on the wall of the Cline House Gallery. Oil painted icon of a man with mycelium growing through his skin and out of his fingers into a wooden wall. A halo of ocular nerves circles his head. The golden decorative frame is painted with eyes and colourful mushrooms grow from the bottom of the frame. All the mushrooms are local to the Ottawa area and were found by the artist.

“Singing Face to Face with Death”, coffee-toned cyanotype. Feels more and more appropriate these days.
Image collage of a skull seen from below so its teeth and upper palette are visible. It emerges from a group of mushrooms. It’s surrounded by a stylized halo. Above it is the words SINGING FACE TO FACE WITH DEATH.

Made a morel out of paper clay today. The other piece show how it looks sliced in half (it is hollow!). I love hunting for these each spring in the forest near our cabin.

Feeling very wintery around here! We haven't gotten this much snow in many years. Even the jays were a bit subdued :) #birds #WildlifeArt #bluejays

‘Mosquito Deterrence (‘Akikiki)’, 18x24" traditional gouache, focused on the most endangered honeycreeper species. This year, a portion of my print sales will be donated to help fight the invasive mosquitos that threaten Hawai'i's birds.

Finished another from last year. Oil paint on canvas. #sciart #oilpainting #fungi #mushrooms #skull #stilllife
Oil painting of a dog skull in profile with chestnut mushrooms on a green cloth against a brown background. There is a big cluster of orange-brown mushrooms at the back of the skull where the brain would be. One mushroom is stocking up through the eye socket. A small bundle of the same mushrooms peek out from under the jaw.

Castilene and water soluble encaustic paint on wood

Oil painting of a saint-like man with a halo that is the nerves in the retina of an eye. His hand rests on a wooden board and mycelium grows from him into the wood. The golden frame is decorated with eyes and a variety of mushrooms grow from the bottom of the frame.
