Oriyamiryu

“Polycephaly of the Soul / Pelt”

“MBTA”

Someone will know what that means

“Seraphic”

A centerpiece for this sort of tryptic of sister prints

“Roadside Beauty Queen”

Intaglio hard ground etching with open biting on Okawara paper

“You are an Attendant at my Funeral / The Mourner”

“Furoshiki” pulled these birds out of silk but the beadwork was retained in the process I guess

“Molting / angel vii”

Mutated this swan and it got reaaal long and many wing-ed

“Cobweb”

Roots of the red flowering highway tree (they invade my garden) some stripped of bark to be bones white strung with beads

“Morphos”

An unerring certainty that as you watch a butterfly drop and dry from its chrysalis, it watches you back…

Come take a gander at my goose (haha)

I was watching a video of Turkish women holding the geese they've bred their whole lives as a source of income and kinda got lost in the imagery of a goose on a bright red Persian rug

The rugs my own creation but I was looking at the shapes and borders and colors of actual ones

“Lovers/Wilt”

Ah, how sad, the creeping rot of a soul, who has lost her sense of reality, to a lover (wilted beau) who isn’t who she seeketh so (Psyche doth thou cradle this looming floral bloom, as if your lover Eros, who fate has woven from the loom)
