Paul Laffoley is one of the great American Visionary Artists.  A well kept secret form the mainstream art world, his works have maintained an underground integrity throughout recent decades.  Unsurprisingly he seems a peculiar man, at least in context with mainstream lifestyles and in a routine C.A.T scan in 1992 a metallic object was discovered close to his pituitary gland which he says is alien technology and assists him in his visionary art.  Regular international exhibitions is opening his art up to a new audience.  Enjoy these marvellous creations.

Some said it couldn’t be done – that there wasn’t a true analogue to a complex field in three dimensions (which is true), and so there could be no 3D Mandelbulb.

Pablo Amaringo was a Shamanic artist from Peru, who passed over recently on December 16th 2009.  His art and life were a marvellous testement to the magic of Ayahuasca as a sacred medicine and a healing plant.  His work as a visionary and seer is perhaps complete.  Brought to the attention of the west by the inimitable Terence Mckenna & Luis Edoardo Luna, his mystic visions are unique and marvellous.  Bless you Pablo, may your Soul journey continue to shine.

Thou grievest where no grief should be,

Yet speakest Words of wisdom Thou!

They who are wise grieve not for those,

Who live, or who have passed away

For verily I ne’er was not

Nor thou, nor any of these lords

And none of us who live this day

Hereafter cease to be

(from Bhagavad Gita Chapter 2, text 11 & 12)
