These nine paintings complete the set of 27 from the unknown painter of Oaklandia, the ghost squirrel homeland. (04.10.16)
Here are more of the paintings from that unknown painter from the early days of Oaklandia as well as a couple images of ghost squirrels from other ages. Oddly enough, the style of these paintings is similar to that of the unknown painter. Some say there is a whole school of painters trained in his (or her) style; others say that the painter is one and the same, traveling through time and space via the Quantum. More to come on that discussion. (11.01.15)
Ah, Oaklandia! The founders had such high hopes for a t’ai chi utopia. Here are four more paintings from those early years. Also, a later painting of Kit of Nehalia and his aardwolf friend Alan deLong. Kit was an Oaklandia expatriate; not all of us can deal with utopia. He and Alan became great friends with the Dragon of Nehalia, the last of the dragons on this world. (08.22.15)

And here are the next four of those 27 paintings done by an unknown artist in the early days of Oaklandia, when the hopes of creating a utopian society of ghost squirrels were still bright. (05.31.15)

Love following your blog , keep it going
Thanks, Richard!
That would be my intention. Hope all is well with you.

Newly introduced to Oaklandia and the ghost squirrel, I must say I am intrigued! While I have no knowledge of the ghost squirrel, I do know about the fox squirrel–which resides (less and less so) in unpopulated regions of Citrus and Marion counties. They look like lemurs and are a joyful gift to see when all of a sudden one might be sitting quite still on a fence post or awkwardly stealing food from a bird feeder. If you’ve never seen one, my hope is that you will someday–before they are extinguished by over-populated development. All the best to you and long live Utopia– wherever it might silently be subsisting.
Thanks, Pam!
I first met white squirrels in Brevard, NC. In Transylvania County. The stories are growing, along with the paintings.
As to fox squirrels, no, I haven’t met them yet. Eyes open and ready.
Hey! This is so fun. All of it! Thanks, Jay, keep me in the loop. The loopy loop. Obladee obladah. . .
Thanks,Jan. It’s all about the loopy loop. Or is it loop garoo? Jay
