53947, a typeface designer, and six live together in worldview. Even though six has the form of a cat, his function is as far from “pet” as can be—roommate might be a better term for the orange, vertically challenged critter.

35" x 23" (acrylic, cardboard and resonant window.) $400.
the greeble are self-sufficient, self-replicating critters that wander the land of worldview. nothing brings them more pleasure than domestic work. often a greeble will find itself in another part of the world after following a trail of rubbish in ecstatic euphoria. this tendency makes the greeble a valuable resource for news exchange in addition to a thorough cleaner.

53947 is a typeface designer. while his world is incredibly visually complex, i cannot see the fine difference. it is as if i am looking into a hd world with 8-bit eyesight. this limitation makes all the “new romans” look similar to me. my brain has created a construct to tell them apart in the form of a number tag. periodically, in our communication, 53947 has shown me his work. while i know each font is unique, my eyesight has boiled the text down into some variation of “times new roman.” the icon-a was responsible for 53947’s awakening, making the letter “a” a favorite reflecting-point in his work.

six begins his journey, greeble in tow. a fascinated 53947, captures a picture as they leave.

longflame are free-burning, naturally occurring phenomenon. they do not burn hot. they do not destroy anything in their burning. they do not require feeding. longflame “burn” with the same energy that encourages “human creativity” and the people of worldview have come to understand how to harness its energy for productive uses as well as aesthetic ones. a pocketcity may be filled with longflame, acting as a portable battery of its energy.

he once told me it was necessary to take a moment of reflection.he thought this a clever piece of wordplay.he continued to explain the necessity for a moment to understand how things flow within each other and how the very existence of something seemingly insignificant can have profound effect on the things which surround it. sunrise on worldview—53947 experiences the new day—a walk on the beach, a glance out to see.the new dawn brings possibilities—each new day brings new beginnings—even if the beginnings are only continuances of yesterday’s beginnings.

he doesn’t need his pocketcity any longer, he can draw resonant energy from the air. iconic fire floated on the saline water combined with the battery swells it to a full-size floating city. aquas, a city built on truth.

bubbles from underwater iconic float through the valley and beach near gladwell. a bit of pressure pushes these bubbles into a fire of a different sort.

minor adjustment 31”x 32” (acrylic and recycled cardboard on resonant window) $400.

a piece on an ongoing story woven between images spanning over a year. 53947 contemplates his latest font design. having perfected the process, he pulls threads of resonant energy to form the positive and negative spaces of the design. it only takes a minor nudge to his original design to find “perfection.”

again, i am reminded of my inability to see fine detail through the windows, his minor adjustment is lost on me as every view of his work in progress looks exactly the same to my vague eyes.

53947 has created a new font inspired by the auspicious “a” that opened his mind to “the possibility of everything.” he knows he has recreated the line of the letter to the “t” and shows it to six, curious as to his reaction. six understands the gravity of the letter and offers an honest assessment.

32” x 26” (acrylic and cardboard on resonant window) $400.

six has no vertical leap. sometimes he requires a little assistance when the way is too steep. fortunately, the greeble is more than happy to provide assistance as it travels and cleans.

28" x 32" (acrylic, plaster and cardboard on resonant window.) $300.
six the cat cannot jump. he is bound to the ground and is therefore limited in his capacity to reach higher elevations(a favorite pastime of his) he takes a trip to see the “framework bloom” one day in order to acquire a block that will allow him to travel the height of an armchair-top on his own. the journey to find the bloom was a long one, but with the aid of the mileadean pen, it was a straight-forward one. the pen draws a perfect path to the users ideal location. all one needs to do is follow the line.

six travels to (or from) the framework bloom. he is walks a switchack that allows him to avoid climbing or jumping--a skill this cat does not have the ability to perform. he travels to (or from) gladwell, a city that climbs from the valley of a caldera, up its walls and down the other side. aquas floats off its shore, humming bubbles of truth like the iconic it was made from. which way is this gravity-dense, orange critter heading in his journey and does it really matter?

resonant energy lives in worldview. it flows freely there in the form of the burning longflame. when this energy passes from worldview into our world,(through a hole above flattop rock, for instance) the reaction of its contact with buildings(storehouses of resonant energy) the result is an explosion that creates "perfect human beauty" and a "bluebird" that flies the remaining energy back into worldview. this cycle of coexistant exchange is captured in this set.

to open the sublime door is to be confronted by answers so certain, they obliterate all the questions. most sit by and around the door, playfully contemplating what it means to open it. for 53947, it is verification.

13”x12” (acrylic, plaster and cardboard with resonant window). $140.

the glass in this shadowbox is from a broken resonant window. it holds some resonant energy, but nothing showed-up when i looked-inside. i decided to build it into a device that could charge the glass over time and fixed the pane in front of an “auspicious a”—the symbol that brought omniscience to 53947. over time, as the “auspicious a” viewed through the glass, the pane will gather resonant energy and charge. in an emergency, this glass can then be used.

without this painting, i would not be the person i am today. 53947 had been having a dream. he was told by a blue bird to pass an old dead tree and climb a hill and on the horizon he will find “salvation.” he had this dream for years and never seemed to make it to the end before waking. this painting is the finale of that dream. it’s completion awakened 53947 to the knowledge of everything and generated a conversation that has resulted in hundreds of paintings with an equal number of life-changing dialogue.

for as long as he could remember, 53947 had the same dream. he is told by a bluebird to pass a tree and climb a hill and on the horizon above a deep valley, he will find “salvation.” he always wakes before he sees the end that he finds in “same dream:”

this painting occurred early in my career. it was intended to bridge two worlds by an enlightened 53947. he has reflected me back to me. i didn’t’ t hear him in this painting for nearly two-years—a missed connection in this panel. 53947 encounters a figure that bears a resemblance not of form, but of action and intention. nothing short of himself can stop him, the power of the universe in his eye.

the firecaster appears to gather resonant energy out of the air and compact that energy into longflame. the longflame is harvested and used for movable sources of resonant energy—an incredible convenience if one needed to refill a pocketcity and didn’t have the time to travel to the nearest naturally-occurring longflame. the firecaster is more than the device, incorporated into the works is a fully-functioning urban area. the entire entity is movable and it travels as the city’s needs require. it does require contact with sea-soil to process resonant energy.

this was an early painting in my communication.the early years were spent setting-up an understanding by which i might best understand his world.he issued probing questions to test my perception.what value do i place on spirituality, faith and worship?was i willing to shift my perception? was i willing to challenge those things i put the most strength-in?
things may not be as they appear, reserve judgement, rethink positions.

I like to paint my skyline. the towering structures of the buildings downtown have always captivated and inspired me. the energy they gather from human interaction has been noticeable to me throughout my window paintings—the fruit of those man-made-trees. i capture here a bit of that energy and nestle it in the tinder of this cardboard and acrylic in hopes it produces a similar inspiration in its beholder.

occasionally, 53947 chooses to show me images of my world. sometimes they are playful observations from his side. other times, they are focusing pieces used to calibrate my sight using familiar structures or known concepts. buildings, i have come to understand, are frequently used to signify sturdy batteries of stored resonant energy. windows also serve this function in my work.

i am fascinated with the concept of “living in the moment. we throw the term around in the hope it will invoke a more present state of being.i had been working with alginate in my explorations and after casting my hand, the realization that i had captured “the moment” in plaster hit me hard.woodworker, scott dermish had been creating with wood since he was a child.when he agreed to let me capture his likeness, i jumped at the opportunity to capture this dynamic individual in his moment.
