Oldies But Goodies: Venus Hum

I was just going through some files and happened upon these images I did with Kip Kubin for the Venus Hum album The Colors In The Wheel.  That was a really fun project.  I was told to just make whatever I wanted.  What a dream.  This is how the bees for Search For the Sugar Puff Hollow were born.  They started out with a story about some bees who ran away from home and died.  They became ghosts, forever hunting for their hive.  It was a sad story but I was really into dreamy, dramatic stories at that time.  Who am I kidding, I still am.  For the new book I used the same character, changed their look and brightened up their story.  Here are some of the images from the album artwork for Venus Hum.

Hope

A book I did as gift many years ago:  HOPE

light gets foggy         can only slight be sometimes

tongue can't touch the taste

Sometimes makes me still    I watch  I smell  I wait

then they come    from every pore and window in the earth

they surround     they climb    they rush

I am covered like a blanket    they whisper

believe             believe           believe

I am content.
