Catching Up Again (Summer Rises)

Catching Up Again (Summer Rises)

It was a summer of heat and a lot of smoke. A lot of strange skies. Very dry, very burnt. Visually fascinating but all too much in my opinion…bring on the snow, bring on the dark and cold!

Catching Up Again (Skipping Past Winter)

Catching Up Again (Skipping Past Winter)

All spring moves with the spark of green sap; the mountains hold the snow, the rivers go and go. The old grass glows and folds, with new things enclosing… and going, and spreading out and out. – Kate 12/04/2017

Catching Up Again (Last from 2016)

After the colour of autumn, before the snow of winter. All low light and golden grasses. All space and lines and reflections…

Summer 2016

2004 – August 25th, 2016

This one is for my cat Kalli. My friend and companion. I’ve never had to make the choice to end the life of someone I loved before. To feel her die while I held her head in my hand…it’s something I will never forget.

I miss you.

Catching Up – Part Three

Catching Up – Part Three

“Soft goes gold, brown.

New green. New plans.

New things and happenings.”

Oh the flush. The rapid transition of sap greens – new grass and leaves. It makes me anxious…excited…sometimes apprehensive. It reveals and exposes; urges and pressures. So much change, so much expected. All the new life.

Winter 2016

Winter 2016 – Arch, Ice, Glow

“In the low-light my eyes find sparks and traces.

All swimming about. All giving a shout.

Images shifting off one onto the other.

All glow. All vibrate. All within and without.

All calm and graces.”

 

To the disbelief of many, winter is a season I really quite enjoy – especially December when the light is low and often glows along the horizon. I like the dark. I like the cold. I love the feeling of early sunsets at the height of the year. And I love the chinook arches…the deep feelings and broad expanses.

Late Autumn 2015 – Full of Spaces & Deeper Things

All the yellow that bursts and pops until it’s all golden brown. Deep blues going pale. Deep things being felt in even deeper spaces…all stretching out across the land.
