Metamorphosis



Fifteen amazing little living examples of constant change are living out the start of their lives on my Studio desk! I rescued these Peron's Tree Frog tadpoles from a small pool of water in a friend's garden about 2 months ago. The days were still very warm, and not long after I set the taddies up in two aquariums at home, the pool was a green warm soup with no sign of life other than algae. So watching them change and grow legs is so rewarding, knowing that there will be a few more precious frogs on the Earth because I helped them!

Spirals recur in my paintings and drawings, as it seems to me this is how time "is".. why do I feel no different in the essence of me, than when I was 20, or 23, or 25, the ages of my children now.. To think of my life as a journey along a straight line is depressing at worst, and just simply doesn't make sense at best. On an energy spiral, I envision we can step across to an earlier part of the life~line, in dream, memory, imagination, discussion, truth. In any case, it's a fun way of drawing! These are some spirals and reflections on our journeys, most recent in my miniature art.
