Faux Postage Stamps from Lemuria

This video from Youtube depicts a set of my Lemurian

the town of Mt. Shasta.

Momih Kollem

Momih Kollem means Water Woman in the language of

the Concow Maidu Indians of Northern California.

This mixed media painting includes sand and earth gathered

in nature by the artist.

The Maidu song that goes (something like): 'Momih le, momih

le tai yonde, tai yonde, tai yonde,' meaning 'The rain is falling

on the eastern mountains' is reflected in this work.

PICTOGRAPHIC ABSTRACTION/ 'The Gunas' by Eric Whollem, 1984/ Mixed media on paper/ CONTEMPORARY ABSTRACT ART

The Gunas

1984

The Gunas

The gunas are mentioned in the Bhagavad Gita, as the

three propensitites of the mind. Satva Guna is the guna

of purity. Raja Guna is the propensity of passion. And

Tamas Guna is inertia and sloth.

The three gunas are said to be represented by the colors

white, red, and black respectively. As such these colors

are a sort of archetypical primary color code, rather

different than the modern red, blue, and yellow which are

frequently mentioned as the primary colors.

In the pottery of Central America the colors red, white

and black are used over and over again. The artists use

earth pigments to manufacture these colors. In a sense

they may be following suit with the guna color system

from India.

The painting above synthesizes the guna color system

with the modern primary color system of western art.
