Last month I started a new art project. My furry assistant helped me prep the canvas.

This piece will be called The Portal.

It’s based on a magical waterfall. Back in March my friend Helen took me to a beautiful ice waterfall. There was an opening in the ice and water was pouring down.

Looking at it I felt moved spiritually. I knew that I could walk into that opening and be transported into another world. The feeling was so powerful that I knew it was true. But then I started questioning it. Where would I go? What kind of world would it be? How would I get back?

As soon as I started questioning it the moment passed. The portal felt closed and I knew that if I walked into the waterfall I’d only get wet.

Still, the moment stayed with me. It was such a beautiful and sacred spot. For my art piece I want to capture that spiritual moment.

The ice waterfall was huge. I couldn’t get it all into the camera frame so I took two pictures. That’s Helen in the bottom pic.
