'Phoenicopterus' (Hypnagogia Series #1), 24"x12", oil and gold leaf on board. I just finished this a few nights ago, my 1st new work in nearly 4 years.
Early last Spring, while in the hospital and close to death, I kept having lucid dreams of a pink flamingo. The visions persisted for months. Later, while researching flamingos, I discovered that they were the inspiration for the mythical Phoenix and as I began my long journey back to wellness (rising from the ashes) I realized what the visions finally meant.
