Seneca Bird, oil and inks on canvas, 48x60". I'm thinking about the consciousness of a beadworker as she experiences the cosmic symbols and beings that inspire Indigenous art and the Haudenosaunee Good Mind. Seneca and Mohawk beaded purses and whimsies featuring birds and animals inspired this painting, which will be on view at the Lancaster Art Vault in Lancaster, PA Oct 2-Nov 27

The Boy Who Overcame All Magic with Laughter
24×36 oil · available

In the Seneca story collected by Arthur C. Parker, a boy named Gajihsondis grows up under a spell he cannot see. A demon of enchantment has scattered the people and bewitched the world; every wish is blocked and misery sits over everything. His grandfather keeps him hidden and warns him never to go near the spring, where a terrible creature waits.

When the boy finally walks the path, he meets the guardians one by one—a giant frog, a duck, a beaver, then a blue lizard that springs from the water and bites off his legs. Each time the magic rises against him, Gajihsondis does the one thing no one expected: he laughs. The laughter weakens the creatures until their power fails.
This was my son Fox in the stream in Amherst we used to go to—here, he is the boy, still innocent and playful, about to laugh and about to face the challenges of life, the old magic, in the form of the first evil being he meets, the frog, coiled in the dark behind him.

The original will be at my First Friday show. Come see it in person.

@OgAn0n661 No regular detergent. Use Dr Bonner's Sal Suds or Charlie's soap to strip any residue or coating and if that isn't enough then add Borax and ammonia

@1Nicdar I guess we all invoked the technological spirits when we did this

Andrew garfield said something on the late show about losing his mother that stopped every grief psychologist who heard it.

He described grief more accurately than most clinical definitions ever have.

What he understood intuitively will change how you understand every loss.. 🧵
