Minerva's Glen

Image
Minerva's Glen being one of my all time favorite drawings, I'm adding it here for your viewing or reviewing purposes. Blending 'real with visionary' somehow seems most interesting to me. What do you think? Minerva's Glen by jude cowell 2008

Wire Art vs Pattillo Armadillo!

Image
> Candle Bower 2003 Look! here's a photo of one of the Candle Bowers created by yours truly as Uranus (lightening; new ideas) traversed my 5th house of Creativity. This was during my electric art phase, 1995 - 2004...see Cosmic Light Panel below - the photo is a bit fuzzy (from 2000) but it will give you the idea. Wish I could still shape wire, beads, stones, and prisms into a spun stageset of silver, gold, copper, and brass - a decoration meant for candle enjoyment as well as for lighting purposes - but it's not to be. (Beware the nickel content in silver wire!) Mirrors reflected candle flames the better to see you with, and here you observe candle's image at the top of the *bower - wish you could see it in evening light where it really glows. But after 6 years of creating this line of designs, nickel had overly sensitized me and so I gave up creating my line of Wire Art , as I called it then, along with other styles of candle art, plus: mobiles, bead-studded boxes, l...

Venus Rising by Jude Cowell; update: Venusian Washington DC

Venus Rising by jude cowell (c) 2008 Update June 10, 2015: Venus, Politics, Presidents, Astrology, Zodiacs, and Washington DC by Jude Cowell How curious that I posted Venus Rising in 2008 since I discovered only recently that April 6, 2008 is what some call the first day of the current Venus Cycle. So considering the 8-year cycle of planet #Venus there is hidden significance in America's 2016 Election/s because 2008 + 8 = 2016 . And let us not leave out our Founding Fathers' preference for a goddess-worshiping mystery religion. If a woman is elected president in 2016, we will have uplifted once again matriarchal rule after centuries of paternalism. Although political conservatives and Evangelicals in the US prefer to call them 'Christians', Franklin, Washington, Jefferson, and our other Utopian founders are usually listed as 'Deists' and most people are aware of their secret society connections such as Freemasonry, Illuminism, and Rosicrucianism. Ye...

Cosmic Light Panel 1999

Image
View of a 1999 Cosmic Light Panel, one of several I created back in the electrified art days leading up to the New Millennium: Formed upon a wooden frame with fabric, wire, beads, colored electric lights, and mirrors, this Panel sits unobtrusively near me as I type and must be plugged into a wall outlet to see what you're seeing in the photo. The brightest object--representing Chiron, the Wounded Healer--is actually a small prism hung behind the fabric with a bulb set to spotlight it. Ahh, the glowiness of 1999!
