Detail from ‘Year of the Snake’. The snake’s forked tongue has turned to tentacles and ensnared the woman. What the snake has brought is undulating, crushing and frightening, but the snake also brings transformation, although as things move out of our control I suspect the new order is far far away.

‘Our Lady of the Milkweed’. When I was a child milkweed plants and Monarch butterflies were everywhere. The patriarchy is out of control now. Resist - however you can. This assemblage with its milkweed pod set inside a nest honours Mother Earth.

The Quantum String Dispenser is finished and it’s pretty darn awesome if I don’t say so myself. Take a break from reading about the orange monster and think about what you are made of, (on a subatomic level).

I stole this from fb before I deactivated my account so I can’t credit anyone. Please forgive me. It is 1812 hero, Laura Secord, who helped stop the American invasion of Canada, coming back out of retirement.

Message to the Premiers: No more trips to Washington. Sometimes you just have to wear your flowered hat.

I look for art that is signalling the unraveling of order. I’m not finding much. But I do get a sense of a malignant presence in AI art. Frightening.

‘Sanctuary’ assemblage, clay figure curled up inside a bird’s nest which represents the womb of the Great Mother. My rage is so great today I need to retreat and regroup mentally. No one is coming to help us. The world is afraid of Trump. But we’ll stand our ground.

Here’s a tiny amulet i made. It’s lovely with its bit of wolf fur from my old Yukon Parka. It is called ‘Wolf Spirit’ made from a milkweed pod, acorn cap, fur, fabric and a cabochon. Brings wearer wisdom of the wolf. Which we Canadians can use right now. Maybe I’ll mail it to Ottawa.

As I get a toe hold here I scan every person’s feed so carefully before I follow or follow back. If you aren’t for social justice for ALL I’m actually afraid of you.

Hey Blue Sky, meet Secnarf. She’s running for Prime Minister on the platform of two votes for every woman to make up for the years when women couldn’t vote at all. Vote SECnARF Canada!

‘Death of an Archetype’. Mixed media assemblage. Archetypes need us as much as we need them. With the current ascendency of the worst the patriarchy has to offer, the reptilian brain in full control, the Sacred Feminine is in retreat.
