Vale of Tears Vale of Tears
We all suffer in one way or another, some more, some less, and so when I consider the misery and suffering that humanity has had to and does endure, I sadly observe that Life is a Vale of Tears...(art masterpiece courtesy Claude Monet)

Oceans of Love Oceans of Love
Oceans of Love was composed for my friend Catherine and her late father and was inspired by Catherine's own pencil drawing, "Oceans of Love". The image for the song is Catherine's work: "Oceans of Love", pencil on paper, 2010.

Morlocks Morlocks
Morlocks is my 4th piece for my Time Machine project. The Morlocks are the Eloi's nemesis, their terror of the night. Although the piece begins in an ambient mode, it becomes quite engaging. Morlocks is the most bizarre piece I have ever written.
