animal love: other nations

The animal shall not be measured by man. In a world older and more complete than ours, they move finished and complete, gifted with extension of the senses we have lost or never attained, living by voices we shall never hear. They are not brethren; they are not underlings; they are other nations, caught with ourselves in the net of life and time, fellow prisoners of the splendor and travail of the earth. –Henry Beston, naturalist and author (1888-1968)

Some paintings from my residency at Fraser Studios that just ended… should be having an exhibition of some of them in March.

‘all is broken all seems brittle’

‘we are the dead’

‘strength implies weakness’

‘have power to shake me as they pass’

‘keep holding on baby blue’
