My work deals with

The space between

The wakeful state

And the dream state

That middle ground that

Sometimes seems to be

A door or a tunnel

I do work in the dream time

everynight or whenever I go

to sleep once there

I excersise the ability

To enlarge or to help

Open up that door

or tunnel that connects

The two realities

I write my dream most

Everyday and sometimes

Also paint them

But, on the whole I do

not think of painting as

Simply the rendering

Of the dream images

Onto canvas ( surrealism)

rather I feel the paintings

emerging from a different

Part of the brain than

dreaming comes from

or writing comes from

thus my painting is

The activity to project on canvas

Through an automated inmediate

"Manual" process the memories

Of all mental

Emotional

Psychic sexual experiences

Stored in the different brains

And bodies that we now

in this lifetime possess

and the memories as

they might also be stored

In the cellular structures

Which might be coming

from other life's experiences

I paint in vivid brilliant colors

although for some years now

I have also  been painting

in stricktly black and white
