'JOURNEY' (BEARDED COLLIE WITH STARLING)
OIL ON CANVAS
36" X 48"

THIS PAINTING DEPICTS A BEARDED COLLIE WITH A STARLING SET IN A LANDSCAPE WITH THE RUNIC SYMBOL FOR JOURNEY. THE METAPHYSICAL POETICS INSPIRED BY RANDOMLY DRAWING THE JOURNEY RUNE OFFERS THE IMAGE AS AN ALLEGORY FOR THE TRANSCENDENTAL FLUX EVOKED BY THE TURBULENCE SUGGESTED BY CERVANTES IN 'DON QUIXOTE'.

IN THE PAINTING THE DON HAS BECOME THE COLLIE AND SANCHO PANZA THE STARLING.....A PARTNERSHIP FULL OF SYMBIOTIC ACCORD WITHIN THE NARRATIVES OF DESTINY.
