Simultaneous appearances

My watercolor mosaic “Fire Storm” has taken on a couple of new lives!  Magically, it seems, the actual painting is hanging on the wall over my desk while digitally appearing in a magazine and on a CD.

The magazine is the Santa Clara Review, published by Santa Clara University.  It’s a paper-and-ink production and also available on the web — www.santaclarareview.com — click on “Issues,” then “Fall/Winter 2010.”

And friend and poet Joan Gelfand selected “Fire Storm” as the artwork for “Transported,” her newly released CD of poetry and music (with musician Marty Castleberg).  You can hear excerpts of Joan’s/Marty’s work on www.joangelfand.com (click on “Listen”) or purchase through www.digstation.com.

You can see “Fire Storm” elsewhere on this website, and read about its origins — click on “My Paintings,” then “Wildfires.”
