Partial Eclipse . 14x11 inches . 2008

Wednesday, May 14, 2008




Ingredients: acrylic paint, beach sand, crushed sea shells, finely ground glass, varnish, phosphorescent pigment, water & light.


I think one of the things that I find fascinating about eclipses is the time involved: Practically none! They only happen so often, and only last a few minutes. People make treks across the world to experience them first hand.

[you can see the sun's atmosphere!]

See the Etsy listing for all 5 lighting shots.

I'm working with REALLY BRIGHT colors right now.

The Electric Universe

Thursday, November 29, 2007


Interested in a new(ish) scientific theory regarding the entire universe?

Thunderbolts Of The Gods

"It proposes that much of the currently observable phenomena of deep space can be intelligently explained by already known principles of electricity."

Personally, I found this utterly fascinating. It's a fairly revolutionary concept, as it would pretty much flip the standard model of the universe inside out and upside down.


If you have an hour to kill or you're a cosmology geek like me, I highly, highly recommend it. I found it to be simple in explanation and intelligently presented. You don't have to be an astrophysicist to fully understand the theory.

(Whew.)
