These oil paintings on canvas are portraits of Arizona’s spectacular monsoon cloud formations and blazing sunsets captured by Michael and Marlys on canvas.

    In keeping with their “Unison” genre, Marlys surrounds the realistic painting by Michael with flowing abstract images thus melding realism and abstraction into one cohesive work of Art.

    Michael and Marlys are the most renowned painting team in Sedona. With over 60 years of combined painting experience, they are masters on canvas. Michael specializes in “conveying a pristine landscape before the intrusion of man”.

    His artwork features the beauty of waterways as well as the backcountry of the Southwest where he often paints plein-air. Along with Sedona scenes Michael is skilled in painting the mountains of Colorado and the beaches of the West Coast. Michael is also known as Sedona’s premier jeweler. Marlys is a well-known abstract painter whose large murals adorn the Sedona Arts Center.

    The Symbolism of Jan. 6

    By Tommy Acosta
    Don’t mess with symbols. Just ask author Dan Brown’s character Robert Landon. The worth of symbols cannot be measured. Symbols make the world-go-round. Symbols carry the weight of a thousand words and meanings. Symbols represent reality boiled down to the bone. Symbols evoke profound emotions and memories—at a very primal level of our being—often without our making rational or conscious connections. They fuel our imagination. Symbols enable us to access aspects of our existence that cannot be accessed in any other way. Symbols are used in all facets of human endeavor. One can only feel sorry for those who cannot comprehend the government’s response to the breech of the capital on January 6, with many, even pundits, claiming it was only a peaceful occupation. Regardless if one sees January 6 as a full-scale riot/insurrection or simply patriotic Americans demonstrating as is their right, the fact is the individuals involved went against a symbol, and this could not be allowed or go unpunished.
