~California Maple Leaf~

~California Maple Leaf~

The California Maple is a shrub that thrives well in the sunny climates of California....Here is my artistic interperatation of a leaf from this fun loving little tree.......

The Disco Purps color is all from the hand pulled pound i mentioned previously...used almost all of it too....!

This sucker is about 2 pounds -11" tall...
Pix are a little sketchy here and there...used the flash alot to bring out the sparkle.

The leaves are tacked down on every individual leaf & stem + one main one in the back.

~Thanks for looking.

>>>>>> '97 <<<<<<

" I suddenly became stangely inebriated.The external world became changed as in a dream.Objects appeared to gain in relief; they assumed unusual dimensions;and colors became more glowing .Even self-perception and the sense of time were changed.When the eyes are closed, colored pictures flashed past in a quickly changing kaleidoscope. After a few hours,the not unpleasent inebriation,which had been experienced whilst I was fully conscious,disappeared.What had caused this condition ?"
~Albert Hofmann, Laboratory Notes (1943)

>>>Thanks for checking out my Art.<<<

*And a big shout to all those that have supported me & supported my Art along the way.
**Thanks to all the guys i used to work with and bounce ideas with in Boulder.
(H-Bomb,J.A.G.,Newman,Brother Willis,Pabilsag,Galactic T and everyone else that was there back then)
***Big Thanks to Everyone on this site for all the Inspiration and Influence and all the people that make it go 'round.

~Peace
