Oil
A weathered metal oil drum stands vertically inside a low-profile green plastic mesh tray resting on an asphalt ground outdoors. The top lid of the circular drum is heavily rusted with peeling orange-brown patina and features small metal caps and latches. The body of the barrel is a grime-stained, dark grey metallic surface marked with heavy vertical dark streaks and drips from spilled oil running down its sides. Prominently stenciled across the middle section of the barrel in white capital letters is the word "OIL", with parts of the letter "O" visible lower down on the right side. To the right of the barrel is a textured white cinder block or painted brick wall, while part of a blue dumpster is visible in the background to the left.

Songs for Liberation presenting at Raise your Voice San Diego
Two people sit in a wood-paneled room behind a cardboard sign reading "MUSIC-LED RESISTANCE." The woman on the left gestures while speaking; the man on the right holds a small drum. A QR code for a digital songbook and the logo for "Raise Your Voice San Diego" are visible on the sign. Musical instruments, like a tambourine and shaker, are scattered on the floor.

Tom Perkinson, Born for Water, Acrylic on Canvas, Windsor Betts Art Gallery, Santa Fe
This complex acrylic painting, "Born for Water" by Tom Perkinson, is a rich tapestry of Indigenous-inspired symbolism and abstract textures. The composition is anchored by a central Waterbird, its wings outstretched over a geometric altar. Below it, a handprint with a spiral palm rests in a dark, earthy void, symbolizing healing and human presence.
​To the left, turquoise and purple zigzags evoke water or lightning, while the right side transitions into deep, celestial blues. The upper half features a glowing golden arch, reminiscent of a rising sun or a ceremonial lodge entrance. Scattered throughout are sacred motifs: medicine wheels (circles with crosses), a feather, and a pine bough.
​The texture is highly tactile, with "scumbled" layers of paint creating a sense of ancient stone or weathered hide. The palette balances "earth" (browns and ochres) with "spirit" (vibrant teals and oranges), creating a bridge between the physical and supernatural realms.

Decorations
This eye-level shot shows a brick-red wooden shelf with heart-shaped cutouts, mounted on an off-white wall. It is densely decorated with a mix of everyday items and festive Christmas decor.
​On top, six wine bottles with artistic labels are interspersed with two wire-bead trees, a cream ceramic teapot, and a whimsical troll figurine. Eight patterned glass mugs hang from hooks along the shelf's scalloped edge.
​Thin pink ribbons dangle from the mugs at varying lengths, holding shimmering gold ornaments like stars and baskets. The focal point is a central Christmas wreath featuring a Santa Claus face with a long, flowing white beard and a large red velvet bow. The arrangement is symmetrical and cozy, framed by white crown molding at the top of the wall.

Seen at the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore Amanda Burnham How and Why Did the Invisible Woman Become So Powerful? 2025 Acrylic and paper collage on drywall
AMANDA LEIGH BURNHAM

Using ink and other water media on paper, and an exaggerated, often frantic comic visual language, I make three-dimensional drawings which both allude to and frustrate traditional pictorial space. Dense, baroque, entwined compositions are a challenge to navigate and present multiple points of emphasis simultaneously. Double-sided drawings, which are then folded, cut into, or popped out, yield continuous imagery that can never be fully accessed or understood at once. Strategic layering and images of holes, spotlights, screens, and nets reference obfuscation, misdirection, and artifice. With these structural and symbolic motifs, I mean to suggest difficulties of navigating the contemporary world as an individual-particularly in the face of overwhelming systemic dysfunction and the suspicious and contested nature of information.
