we are all stars
some luminous and bold
ever present

How much more evidence do we need? The ultra-rich and the governments supporting them will destroy everything for the sake of profit, power and pride. Nothing is precious to them - not human life, not the living world - except their own wealth and status. Our survival depends on resisting them.

Here's one of my more recent paintings: 'She Was Always Asleep At School', oil on canvas panel, 40x50cm framed. A painting inspired by a girl in primary school who was always asleep due to unknown home troubles. Elements homage Dorothea Tanning.

Photo of a drawing of mathematical art (descriptive geometry) next to a canvas showing the same drawing in an earlier stage (construction nearly done, no coloring yet). Both show how circles on a sphere containing the North Pole are projected onto lines. By elkement 2024/2026.

I am re-creating my 2024 drawing "Circles to Lines" on gesssoed and sanded canvas!

The construction is nearly done: Six circles on the surface of a sphere, containing the North Pole --> projected onto lines via stereographic projection.

Cluster of honey golden mushrooms, tightly packed, some with damage to the hoods. They are shiny ink caps (Coprinellus micaceus).

And to my surprise I came across a bunch of pretty recent shiny ink caps (Coprinellus micaceus). Pity they suffered some damage...

A vibrant, iridescent rainbow-colored sheen of oil or gasoline on a wet asphalt. The liquid has pooled in a shallow puddle, and the thin film creates a psychedelic, swirling pattern of blues, purples, greens, and oranges due to light interference. The rough texture of the dark gray and brown ground is visible beneath and around the colorful patch. The top of an old building is reflected in the water in the top left of the image.
