ARTIST’S STATEMENT
The process of transforming paint and other materials into images continues to compel and challenge me. Over the years, that process has led me from ceramics, photography, drawing and painting, and most recently to pursue experimental processes on paper. Painting fills me with a sense of serenity and integrity, and has proven a most reliable vehicle for translating inner vision to outer reality.
My abstract paintings explore the wonders of nature and beauty in our world. Personal symbols that have emerged through this process include; the Turtle (wisdom/grace), the Dragonfly (metamorphosis/change) and the Tree (steadfastness/beauty).
I use a variety of different paints/media (oil pastel, ink, acrylic, latex, gouache, and wood) and yet I am always drawn back to water colors for their unpredictable nature and their transparency.
I paint from the inside out. Focusing on the sensation and context of my experience. I work deliberately, employing both traditional and innovative techniques, while letting the uncertain nature of painting free my hand. My paintings are finished when they are able to convey a moment or sensation, as well as what I am feeling.
I am avaiable to do commisions and private art lessons also.

To my Darkness and my Light,
I unfold myself; you, in turn, call to me with your warm and aching mouth— its tongue, a delicate command I will not long withstand.
Your lips spill sighs; I drink until your thirst is sated.
Trembling hands steady me beneath you. You guide me toward your deepest acceptance. I find a center in you; you grasp me and gasp.
(You shudder— hands bracing the afternoon light dying against such white walls. I see with the eye of god your ineffable Beauty. I fall and place this feeble kiss to caress the spine of your neck as I pass.)
With you I experience annihilations most will never know.
After I am restless; you know that what I want is what I will never manage alone— you coax from my every ending its next beginning.
We must map these new and nameless oblivions together.

Statement by H.E. Ambassador Kyaw Moe Tun, Permanent Representative of the Republic of the Union of Myanmar to the OPCW at the 24th Session of the Conference of States Parties to the Chemical Weapons Convention.
The Conference is held at the World Forum, The Hague, the Netherlands, from 25-29 November 2019.
Repetition and Ritual
The sculptures for the show were created this summer and were inspired by the idea of repetition and fungi forms in nature. These pieces center on the creative act as personal obsession. This work is the beginning of an exploration of the idea of repetition and ritual experienced through the process of making. A prescribed order of assembling, manipulating, and presenting the materials borders on ceremony. Ritual is also found in these works and in this process.
These obsessions are expressed with the laborious act of felt making, the oldest known textile form dating back 8,500 years and also fungi, one of the oldest life forms, dating back one billion years ago.
In making this work, repetition is used to single-mindedly pursue, refine, and purify an idea. Repetition and obsession is an effort of holding a visual image or idea in the mind for extended periods. The profound techniques in art of repetition lead us from the repetitions of habit and daily life.
Repetition can be transcendence. Repetition is the capturing and stopping of time.
These forms are based on clusters of fungi I found in the forest this summer. These clusters would sometimes be comprised of hundreds of small round forms. The pattern work is an abstraction from mushroom spore prints that I made from the caps of foraged fungi. When placed under a glass over night the mushrooms release spores and make beautiful intricate forms.
My fascination with fungi stems from the idea of life cycles that has been ever present in my work. Fungi relies on mostly decayed organic matter to live, thus continuing the idea of the cycle of birth, life, and death. The physical becomes spiritualized. I construct forms to represent the sacred in universal archetypes of immortality and regeneration. It represents a desire for wholeness. Through ritual process I hope to manifest the magical to the physical.

The trend these days is for women to carry classic, designer handbags that make a statement and are useful and practical at the same time.
Following are the official statements by Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton at the start of their meeting today:
Prime Minister Netanyahu:
"I want to welcome Secretary Clinton once again to Jerusalem. I want to thank President Obama, you and the American government, and the people, for their strong support for Israel in this hour of need.
I want to also thank you especially for your support of Iron Dome. It has been saving lives, and we are in a battle to save lives. One of the things that we are doing is trying to resist and counter a terrorist barrage which is aimed directly at our civilians and doing so by minimizing civilian casualties, whereas the terrorist enemies of Israel are doing everything in their power to maximize the number of civilian casualties. Obviously, no country can tolerate a wanton attack on its civilians.
Now if there is a possibility of achieving solution to this problem through diplomatic means, we prefer that, but if not, I'm sure you understand that Israel will have to take whatever action is necessary to defend its people.
This is something that I don't have to explain to Americans. I know that President Obama, you and the American people understand that perfectly well, and I thank you once again for your support. Welcome to Jerusalem."
Secretary of State Clinton:
"Thank you very much, Prime Minister. I look forward to a productive discussion this evening at such a critical moment for Israel and the region.
President Obama asked me to come to Israel with a very clear message: America's commitment to Israel's security is rock solid and unwavering.
That is why we believe it is essential to de-escalate the situation in Gaza. The rocket attacks from terrorist organizations inside Gaza on Israeli cities and towns must end and a broader calm restored. The goal must be a durable outcome that promotes regional stability and advances the security and legitimate aspirations of Israelis and Palestinians alike.
President Obama has emphasized these same points in his multiple conversations with President Morsi of Egypt and we appreciate President Morsi's personal leadership and Egypt's efforts thus far.
As a regional leader and neighbor, Egypt has the opportunity and responsibility to continue playing a crucial and constructive role in this process. I will carry this message to Cairo tomorrow. I will also be consulting with President Abbas in Ramallah.
Let me also say, to echo the Prime Minister, I am very pleased that the Iron Dome defense system is performing so well. Our partnership and support of this system represents America's enduring commitment to the safety and security of the Israeli people, and to Israel's right to defend itself.
But no defense is perfect, and our hearts break for the loss of every civilian, Israeli and Palestinian, and for all those who have been wounded or who are living in fear and danger, I know today was a difficult day, and I offer my deepest condolences to the loved ones of those who were lost and injured.
In the end, there is no substitute for security and for a just and lasting peace, and the current crisis certainly focuses us on the urgency of this broader goal. So in the days ahead, the United States will work with our partners here in Israel and across the region toward an outcome that bolsters security for the people of Israel, improves conditions for the people of Gaza and moves towards a comprehensive peace for all people of the region, and I thank you, Prime Minister, for your hospitality and look forward to our discussion."

The impressive pavilion at Feethams, home to Darlington Cricket Club. The oldest bits of the structure date from 1906. The flat-roofed extension was added in 1992. Captured before a five-wicket defeat by Richmondshire in the Premier Division of the North Yorkshire & South Durham Premier League.
Lacking four regulars (owing to holidays, a stag do and football), Richmondshire cleared a tricky hurdle to extend their lead and plunge Darlington deeper into relegation trouble. The visitors, with four games of the season remaining, have a 19-point lead over title rivals Marton, who could manage only a losing draw at Barnard Castle. With Great Ayton winning at Middlesbrough in a crunch relegation battle, Darlington slip a place, to 10th, 10 points above the drop zone, occupied by Seaton Carew and Middlesbrough.
The departure, to a soft catch, of professional Tom Hewison (63) sparked a costly Darlington collapse. The last five home wickets produced just 17 runs. Callum Lethbridge's 27 was the only other decent score. Sam Wood (3-25), Chris Layfield (2-6) and Steven Reeves (2-29) shared the bulk of the wickets. Reeves, Richmondshire's Australian professional, played a key role as the visitors chased down a modest target. Darlington, boosted by early breakthroughs from pacer Shaun Charlton (2-53), appeared in with a chance when Richmondshire were reduced to 53-3, opener Robert Carr hitting 26. But Reeves, a big fella, steadied the ship with an unbeaten 44. Darren Van Der Vyver (20) and Wood (19) did what was necessary at the other end.

as i end this semester and look forward to a new one, i realize that i will probably never have a more positive critique than the one monday night. the critics had no critiques, so i was instructed to muck up a bit, to get dirty. i was told to forget about technique, get a cheap-ass camera. damned right. i see a whole new worlds unfolding.
