Statue outside an Italian restaurant in Provincetown, MA. A woman with Grecian-style robes and a crown of wheat on her head, with a sheaf of wheat in her right arm. She is in an alcove with lanterns hanging from the walls and two pots of chrysanthemums in front of her, both yellow and purple combined in a single pit. She is wearing an oval stone as a necklace. Behind her in the wall is taped a small sign reading @ceraldicapecod, the restaurant’s website.

Two women walking on the beach, late afternoon, at very low tide. The edge of the beach and the beginning of the water are at an angle, from lower left to upper right. The women are at the right side of the frame, with long, late afternoon shadows trailing behind them. A jetty of rocks crosses the angle of the beach, making an X with the angle of the shoreline. Pools of sand, pools of water.

A “mandala” I created alongside youth group members. Inspired by James 1:17, and God’s “perfect gifts from above,” we were charged with painting something we love. My love was color. The mandala begins with dots/ circles of color within a larger circle,and continues with various wobbly designs in the colors purple, red, green, yellow, blue, and orange. Outside the mandala, which is on a 10” square canvas, I painted the corners blue (left) and purple (right).

Fiber art: “Gaia” by Grace Antonokos

Artpiece, “Gaia,” by Grace Antonokos, made of fibers: a crocheted face of a beautiful woman with closed eyes and full lips, soft green complexion, curling moss-textured hair of a darker green, and antlers that are really delicate tree branches, with green leaves sprouting. A wine-colored flower and wooden beads at the throat, pink and yellow flowers clustered to one side of the crown of her head, and white daisies scattered around her hair. Seen at CloudCroft Studios’ annual exhibition, September, 2026.

A chain link fence through which a tree grew; now the tree has been taken down and all that is left is a segment of a branch, about 5 inches in diameter and a foot and a half long, poking through the chain links. Smaller branches, all cut to a few inches, sticking out on all sides. Twilight. Some trees, the largest an evergreen, in the background to the left .the back of a white house in the background to the right.

From LUMA, Binghamton’s annual amazing mapping-projection festival as created by #JoshuaBernard and countless artists. The front of a building that seems to be covered with reliefs of people, looking much like Ancient Greek statues, and they are caught in a freeze frame while they are moving towards the top of the image.

From my lover’s late-summer garden: two foxglove blossoms amidst the greenery, holding on. Also, a late-afternoon morning glory, petals retracted, still beautiful.
