"Little Liquid Sunshine" is watercolor in acrylic medium on cradled wood board 7"x 5" x 1 1/2" not available Maybe if I pull out my sunshine paintings, the sun will shine that finally broke through will hold for a day or two of good painting outdoors.
"Three Blue Bird Dragon Song" is a free association painting inspired by dragon handles on a Chinese Vase. The handles were sculpted in arabesque curves that make the dragon very full of the breath of life as though ready to sing and take flight as blue birds. The painting is acrylic on canvas 24" square for sale $ 300.
"Reflection Dragon, Siletz River," fused acrylic with water-soluble wax pastels and acrylic paint on cradled wood board, 12" square by 1 3/4" deep, for sale $300 plus shipping.
I see dragon shapes in nature. In whispy serpentine clouds streaking across the blue before rain, the bilateral symmetry of flowers and the lake water reflections during drout! Seeing these dragon shapes in nature connected to the coming of the life giving water makes the dragon symbolic to me.
About Dragons
"The Eastern dragon is not the gruesome monster of mediaeval imagination, but the genius of strength and goodness. He is the spirit of change, therefore of life itself... Hidden in caverns of inaccessible mountains, or coiled in the unfathomed depth of the sea, he awaits the time when he slowly rouses himself to activity. He unfolds himself in the storm clouds; he washes his mane in the blackness of the seething whirlpools. His claws are in the fork of lightening....it becomes the symbol of productive forces of moisture, that is spring, when by means of genial rains and storms all nature renewed itself. C. A. S.
