‘Joy In The Presence, A Path In Peace’ reaches another milestone!
Four thousand pieces of art have now been created on consequetive days. After nearly 11 years of work ‘Joy In The Presence’ is beginning to reveal itself. The passing of time, marking the moments, plots a space for the unseen and unknown to emerge. The experience of a life lived between the moments is revealed. It offers an insight into what takes place in our subconscious progression of time.
Over the years the artwork has evolved into a process whereby each piece of the ‘visual jigzaw’ is created from a place of unknowing. It begins with a blank piece of paper and an open mind. During the creation process words come to mind, these words become a key to unlocking the work.The words are an integral part of each individual artwork. In October this year I started stringing these words together and to my amazement by just adding an occasional addition word an extrodinary flow of understanding emerged. The process of creating the artwork enabled me to reach a meditive state of mind that linked to the deep subconscious. It is this deep subconscious information that is our primary guide to life. It is multi-dimensional and reveals so much more than the eye can see alone.
To celebrate this process I have put together the sequence of artworks created in October 2025. The numbers represent the consecutive artworks. The words in italics are the addition words. Reading left to right and top to bottom.
