Goddesses

I’ve been painting Goddesses and Gods for over two decades. Here is their story: One day I said to myself, where did all the deities come from? The millions of gods and goddesses throughout human history: local gods, cruel, kind, powerful, silly, beatific and horrific supreme beings. We don't know where they came from, but we do know that it was we humans who painted them, sculpted them, sang to them, prayed to them and built their temples. So why not some fresh ones? - Not only new deities for today but also a re-visioning of the traditional deities like the God of War (Aries) or the Goddess of Compassion (Kwan Yin). My art comes out of an exploration of myth and religion of many times and cultures, something that has not been available to such an extent ever before in the history of our culture. Having at our fingertips a vast array of images of the divine, in art, architecture, music and words - I continue, with my art - to expand the pantheon and to depict the sacred groves and temples as I see and feel them. The God and Goddess Series began in January of 1988 and has steadily grown to over one hundred and seventy five paintings. These large format (26 by 40") watercolor portraits of homemade and traditional deities celebrate aspects of the divine and of the merely human. They are a way for us to see ourselves as sacred, and so to honor our own powers. They are serious like the traditional Durga, and irreverent like The Goddess of the Joys of Petty Thievery, or important for our time like The God of Safe Sex or the Bee Goddess. On my website many have contributed writings and other input in order to flesh out these supreme beings and give them many voices.
