Everything Small Holiday Show, Roos Arts

Dear Friends,
I have three small pieces in this great Holiday Show in Rosendale NY at my new favorite upstate gallery, Roos Arts.  The show opens TONIGHT! (See below) The best thing about this show is that all work is priced at under $100 giving everyone the opportunity to easily gift Art this season! 
I got a sneak peak yesterday when I brought my work to be installed and it all looks so fabulous!

PS. This piece is one of my works in the show and I will be offering all my blue Monoprints from this year at this special Holiday Price for fun:) Feel free to inquire.

Gignesthai, becoming....Monoprints, Artist Books

Blue's in the studio today
I'm still playing with printing, I am working on two little books-both re-writes of 'The Two Queens'.  Which are two found books that were originally published in 1874.  I am re-writing them by finding the words I want to keep on the page.  I have been doing this "finding" in different ways for a while, I think because it stimulates new connections and creative relationships that may pre-exist or not?  The prints below are very simple mono-prints....they could be anything I suppose, in their simplicity they have so much possibility of becoming something.  I am thinking of beginnings and ends-but that seems like a nonsense concept, how can there be beginning and end as two separate objects or concepts-since they are one and the same and really everything is flux.
Today I was reading some about Heraclitus an ancient philosopher and he used the word Gignesthai, which I had to look up.  The word is Greek for "becoming" and the word Genesis derives from it...then I started reading about Genesis and I love how science and philosophy use similar language for different applications.....la..la..la....and then I ended on what was the beginning?
