Autumn Light

I end many of my days with a long walk along an arroyo path. When the season changes to autumn here the first thing I notice while walking is the softening light and shortening of the days. These words from Pablo Neruda seem just right for this time of year~

We need to sit on the rim
of the the well of darkness
and fish for fallen light
with patience.

~Pablo Neruda, from The Sea and the Bells

I'm introducing a new series of prints in my online shop. The series is called "Ghosts and Angels".  The prints are  a selection of images created from some of my favorite carved wood, mixed media pieces. The images are 7" x 7.6" on an 8" x 10" acid free, polar luster paper. They come with a museum board backing in a clear acid free sleeve. Each print is signed and dated and suitable for framing.
