The First Law of Thermodynamics says that energy under normal conditions cannot be created or destroyed, simply transformed from one type of energy to another.

Alchemy and Ch’i is a collection of mixed media paintings and drawings that explore Universal energy, communication, and transformation through the use of form, symbology, and color. Symbols of earthly elements, the metaphysical, the spiritual, and the new age collide and intermingle with light, form, and movement in deep space; a space that welcomes the viewer to enter, feel connected, and possibly be transformed.
