White Pine charcoal markings
4" x 5" panels
Khadi paper
Tillson NY


with this dyptich of drawings/markings I explore conscious unconscious continuities with left and right hands... this markings is with left hand with left panel, right with right panel...
after marking right panel I/conscious ego, and with awareness with unconscious levels aligned visually with the left side with similar line/markings... I was challenged mostly with left hand skills and mental connections markings responding to what my right hand had done... this a combination of my own maleness bias as well as my feminine bias testiness, again my perspective now with looking at it consciously and allowing unconscious to speak as a male...

charcoal markings with White Pine Pinus alba branches/sticks charred in Fire... 
the resinous White Pine is known by many traditional cultures as flexible with the winds of change, to a degree... and is considered to be Tree of Peace with the Iroquois Federation...

this Khadi paper is a cotton rag from a community cooperative paper maker with SW India region...

high Water with Low Falls
charcoal from local circle fire, stone with "briquette" circle Fire, 
vegetation and Water & Earth cosmologies
Roundout Creek
High Falls NY

below High Falls and Low Falls with the recent rains the Waters have risen and stones along the Roundout Creek banks are inaccessible... I selected three stones of a circle Fire with toxic briquettes as marker stones... much of the area is high-fenced off and signed with "Danger" and "No Tresspassing" by the electric power company that owns and uses the damned area of the Roundout Creek as its' own power source... other access areas to the creek are signed off with no trespassing by local landowners...
with high Water with the rains there was a clear line of plastics and other crap marking the high water line... this place is marked as a scenic stop - seems the meaning of scenic is changing...


information signs for the area are still in place for visitors both with accessible areas 
and inaccessible areas... signaling transitions toward privatized Waters...

Water
lighter with falls 
floats with Air...
