The Mysterious Seven Macaw A playful, digtally organic take on an ancient Mayan myth of a god who claimed to be creator of the world but was laid low by the Hero Twins. |

 |
Flying Fox Excerpted from the large format piece Inca Sky, this piece expresses a typically Andean understanding of a changing sky, and the attendant sense of loss that accompanied each change. |

Making Magic... Originally created to develop a new visual style, this piece expresses much more the joy of being alive. It features the enduring image which I have come to call the Desana image |
|
 |
Human Pods This piece is taken from my ongoing art project :: salviaspace :: which explores the entheogenic herb salvia divinorum. It recalls a shifting visual experience not easily described with words... |

Central Mountain A simple mandala based on the cosmologies of some Plains Native American peoples which functions as a calendar as well as a map of the universe. |
|

Marc Stares At His Empty hand A unique portrait of a visually paradoxical man in which the inks did not settle properly on the media, producing a textured finish. |
|
 |
David A portrait of an old friend made from a photograph and eventually recreated in 2004, David is still recognisable despite the nonlinear effect. |
|

Sky (Early Version) A very early version of a piece which eventually evolved into the Skyscapes 1 project. Time hasn't been kind to this piece, mainly due to the rough and ready nature of the corrugated card media. Its delapidated nature also moved my partner to support me in my art work: he couldn't bear to see this piece looking so ragged... |

 |
Ahoahel An experiment with typographic forms using the fragment of an old Native American mythical narrative as a base for the text. |
|
 |
Minotaur A piece made while living in Japan, this image explores the Greek myth of the Minotaur and the hidden nature of modern mythological beliefs. |

 |
Birth A mythical piece taken from a series retelling a Bronze Age myth of the Star Son - here we see his birth . |
|
 |
Go-Go Boy #1 A sorrowful twenty-minute portrait of a man whose name I forgot but whose eyes I probably won't. |
|
 |
Desana 95 A very early abstract piece using the Desana image as a base (see 2005) from a series incorporating tribal rock art into distracting environments. |
