Below is one of several of my paintings inspired by Dale Chihuly, the great artist in glass, whose sheer vitality has been integrated amongst the luxuriant vegetation in our local Conservatory.  With great force and impact his fragile creations tell us that "Life" is no accidental, inessential scum befouling the surface of one miniscule speck within an infinite universe that is lifeless to the core-- Life derives from the Center and drives all things:

Our first day of driving the Circle Road around the nation of Iceland, I happened to glance up a towering cliffside to where an immense jagged slab of white cloud threatened to obliterate us, then realized that it was merely a tiny lobe of the glacier that blankets an entire third of the island.  Iceland is blessed with vast glaciers that nest atop a cauldron of volcanic activity.  In Iceland, glaciers are the stepping stones to heaven:
