Ripening
An Uncharted series
released May 2022

Lightning Bolts From The Ground

Skippi Geo

Birdbirds: The Idea From Which Ideas Spring
 

I run Downhill

So pure 

Around well worn corners 

Over the smoothest stones 

I move through saturated Growth 

Attached and reaching 

I am thirsty for you 

I long to contaminate

Myself with your dissolve 

Until I start to dribble and gurgle 

Finally my mouth opens

Migration

The Boatman

This Uncharted series has come about since the beginning of the year.. sketches and explorations drawing on themes related to the changes happening around me, seasonally and personally and universally.

​

Things appearing dormant but working away in the underground,

Stuff poking through and reaching for goodness, 

The cycle of the elements,

The land of limbo once again limbering up, 

Germination,

The used-to-be,

The what-will-be…

​

A Ripening.

Way Back Under

Ripening

I found it hard to leave these paintings as uncharted and raw as my last Uncharted series… 

I got a bit excited and made them all beautiful wooden box frames.

The Cross Over

Clinging To The Edge With Her Clothes Pegs

Unraveling

Thank you for visiting this Ripening land,

Wishing you a spring time of promise.
