Magazine Arts Interview: RC Digest Showcases My Paintings
A recent issue of the international online magazine Rosicrucian Digest presented my article Ma’at’s Feather and the Art of Transformation in a special edition devoted completely to art. This colorful, art filled issue celebrated art as the Rosicrucian Salons of the 1890s did, exploring painting as well as music, writing, sculpture, and dance from a mystical perspective.
The magazine continued this special celebration this month when Julie Scott, Rosicrucian Grand Master for the English Grand Lodge of the Americas, interviewed me in depth about my oil painting Ma'at's Feather and its related article, Ma'at's Feather and the Art of Transformation, as part of a conversation with some of the authors of the articles in the Rosicrucian Digest arts issue.

More About Ma'at And Her Famous Feather
The interview opens by exploring my oil painting, Ma'at's Feather, which shows a single purple and white feather against a mysterious red and gold background.
I created this piece during a time of great introspection, inner evolution, and mystical development. That also was a funny time of finding feathers everywhere, whenever I was outside taking a walk or just going out into the backyard.
Now you can enjoy the story about when and why I created this artwork, including details I've never shared before.
Interview Includes Three More Paintings
Besides Ma'at's Feather, the interview includes a section dedicated to exploring three of my other paintings:
- Pour L'Egyptienne (For The Egyptian Lady), a two-part oil painting of Nefertiti, also featured in my article about women mystics, “Founders, Funders, Feminists: The Women Who Co-Founded, Co-Led, and Co-Inspired the Rosicrucian Order, AMORC”.
- Reflection, the intriguing and mysterious blue, silver, and pink watercolor painting displayed next to me in the photo at the top of this post.
- Noble Dignity, one of the watercolors from my most recent body of work created on handmade Asian papers, which shows a single stately purple iris.
