New Batch of Pottery






I've been involved with these Anasazi designs for a while now.

I've discovered a Night, Day, Nigh,t Day cycle in them incorporating the directions of the earth and of a year, a life?

On a spinning Earth.

You can see the influence in my paintings below. I think the influence is akin to Pollock and Indian sand painting, as a performance on the ground.






It is strange how they are mainly seen as regional tourist items. To me they are elemental and as an example here are pots from the British Museum.
