At present a large oil painting is in the works which at one time included numerous figures entangled in a wave of humanity's triumphs and tragedies. In this process, sketches were drawn and some I have found to have a life of their own. "Within Skin and Stone" came from one such sketch. Along with other drawings such as "Samsara" (also considered for inclusion) I needed to fully realize it in pencil. Not only that, but considering the time I will spend finishing this latest painting, I needed to create some completed works along the way. The title "Within Skin and Stone" is simply what came to mind when I studied this particular pose. The embryonic figure gives the impression of being still as stone. Yet within... there is life. And to a greater extent, even in stone itself there is life energy. Some call it Love, the ethereal energy or silent music which keeps the universal dance and our planet in motion. Petrus
