The tree with a gold leaf
Advanced mystics have described true reality as radiating infinite beauty, hidden to ordinary perception, as if the leaves of a tree would become gold simply by the contemplation on their leafness, looking, and waiting until they did. I draw, patiently waiting for a gold leaf.
Icons
The title 'Icons' is a reference to the classical portraits of Saints and divine figures but more so the intent of these portraits: unio-mystica—mystical experience, beyond ordinary description, very real, but only accessible in a state of sustained awareness of non-form. So, I wish my work to be 'windows into a parallel world'¹, made visible as playful, organic, spontaneous things (←best description²).

Other nomenclature :
• Nature as invisible processes (AKA attractor fields) made visible, like wind tracing the surface of water, or the spontaneous unified movement of birds
• Essential processes : rarefaction, distillation, sublimation
• The sensuality, grandeur & luxuriousness of the plant kingdom ie. @opulencevegetaux
