Free Art Friday

Want free art? This 5×5 original piece of art could be yours! You could find it somewhere in suburbia as part of Free Art Friday NoVA! Keep an eye out for this little piece of art, and more to come, Fridays in Northern Virginia. I’ll be leaving my pieces in Fairfax. If you would like clues for how to find free art, or if you are an artist who would like to participate, check out Free Art Friday NoVA on Facebook. I love the idea of someone finding a free piece of original art. I’m hoping it will bring a bit of joy and wonder into someone’s day.

Dear Suburbia,  I made this for you. P.S. It is free. xoxo

This Is Away

A rabid bat. A spasm of birds, separating in blue on blue. Nostalgia. This day, only before and away. Away. Take a lower look to all that has fallen. An intrusion of soil, separating in green on green. Shards of absence and hunger. A rewriting of us. Look. There is a calling. You are pulled towards a serrated remembering. The cutting in and cutting out of garden shadows. Ghostly abstractions that struggle to find a host.

This Is Blue Shag

Look at her, my love, proof of peace. All cascade, all swoon, all grace. She dines by moonlight, and backflips, curling through this blue sea of my true origin. She is all cotton candy. She is all feather and tentacle. She is all bramble and seagrass and moss and weed. This girl is a shipwreck. This girl now breathes under water.
