In Case You Missed It

In case anyone missed the "memo", I am no longer a Christan and do not believe in God in any way you would understand. The Magic Old man in the sky who rewards "good" boys and girls who follow his supposed rules in (pick a "Holy" book ANY "Holy" book) and punishes "bad" boys and girls with eternal torment is a MYTH, a LIE, NOT TRUE in any form!!
This may sound like I am angry, but really I am just upset that I wasted so bloody much of my time worrying about, thinking about and "practicing" things related to the fantasy of "Christianity".
I am not an atheist, I have experienced way to much to not understand that there is much more to reality than what we know and see. But If their is a being that created all things, It doesn't care what we do! If it is ALL powerful and wanted humans to be good, the world would not be what it is today. Religion is a man made thing, designed to control and manipulate people. That is ALL it is, it does not make the world better in any way! There is good and evil but how can anyone claim that they know what "God" wants or thinks? Life is for living not wasting it trying to do the right things according to some MAN who says "God" wants you to wear this or eat that or hate this person or that one. Wasting your life planing for or fearing the afterlife is STUPID! If there is an afterlife then be the best person you can be (NOT by following stupid rules but by treating others right) and I am sure you will get what you deserve. Living JUST for what you get after you die is crazy!! OK, I will stop this rant for now, but please THINK, if someone said they believed in aliens who put humans on Earth and will be coming back to take those who believe in them to a better place but leave "nonbelievers" to die...you would think that person was insane! And if they could decide what rights you could have and what you couldn't' have, I don't think you would be to please with it or tolerant of that craziness. Well that is what "Christianity" is to me!

Another Tarot


When I made my Tarot deck, I added 3 cards, "Talent", "Life" and "Angel". The Talent card represents all forms of talent but is mostly about extra abilities, mental abilities that most people either do not have or do not use. I still like the image and symbology even after over 20 years. This was done in marker and colored pencil on illustration board.

Last Christmas


This was one of the card designs for our Christmas cards last year. It isn't as realistic as I had wanted but people seemed to like it. 5 1/2 x 8 1/2 roughly. "White Wolves", Acrylic on Canson board.

We Are ALL Doomed


Well, since the brilliant Right Wing has discovered the evil scientific "Cabal" that has perpetrated the hoax of Global Warming upon us... with thinking like that and the denial of facts in favor of superstition and religion, I think the human race is truly DOOMED!

So here is a post apocalyptic picture to show you what we might face in the future. "Future Primitive", about 6 x 10 or so I think, Acrylic and watercolor colored pencil on Canson board.

My Tarot


I don't think I have posted much about my Tarot Deck. I spent 8 months back in the 80's making my own Tarot cards. Now, thanks to computers, I have them scanned, cleaned up and have printed 7 decks for sale so far. I am selling 100 decks at $100 each (if I had realized how labor intensive doing them was I would have charged more). These are signed and numbered and so far deck number 1-6 and deck number 13 have been sold. Here is the "Fool" card, it has all the other major Arcana cards on it (in the bubbles).

Three Wolves Card


This was one of our Christmas cards for 2006. Because of Vista Prints card size (which they have since shrunk and I am not happy about it) and my miscalculation on proportions, the picture had to be cropped and lost a bit of the body of the wolves at the bottom. While I like some of this, it just did not come out as well as I had hoped. Acrylic on Canson board.
