Man is Evolving

“We talk about peace and prepare for war. We use grenades, bombs, all manners of destruction and violence. The majority of humans love to fight, otherwise we would stop it. Man is the fiercest of all beasts.

Hopefully, as evolution continues we will change our habitual war and we will bend the arrow of war in the other direction to peace and love.”

Wilma Daubenspeck Cliff

Tree of Knowledge description

PAINTING PROCESS: The process of artistic creation itself has dominated my painting. I proceed from an emotional response to what I am thinking. So, I have a dialogue with this concept, evaluating it and changing it until I feel “that’s it” — it has a life of its own.
