SketchCrazed – surreal, lurid, unzipped

SketchCrazed is an opportunity for me to share the very strange drawings I do. The common thread is in the attempt to explore new relationships of form, contrast, and pattern, and to see where they take me.

Landscapes of spirit and desire

”Just to know that nomadic hunters exist, that jaguar shamans yet journey beyond the Milky Way, that the myths of the Athabaskan elders will resonate with meaning, is to remember that our world does not exist in some absolute sense but rather is only one model of reality.

The Penan in the forests of Borneo, the Vodoun acolytes in Haiti, the wandering holy men of the Sahara teach us that there are other options, other possibilities, other ways of thinking and interacting with the earth.”
Shadows in the Sun by Wade Davis

Oh sweet, very nice. It's an interesting collection. Thank you!

I can see buildings through trees :D

You may be right @veryspider. There is a figure in it too. The top middle leaf is her face, with one arm touching her head and the other arm lower.
