Welcome! A few years ago, I discovered an application that artists employ in their works to bring cultural awareness to their audiences. Having discerned this semiotic theory that applies to literature, music, art, film, and the media, I have devoted the blog,Theory of Iconic Realism to explore this theory. The link to the publisher of my book is below. If you or your university would like a copy of this book for your library or if you would like to review it for a scholarly journal, please contact the Edwin Mellen Press at the link listed below. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Thank you for visiting. I hope you will find the information insightful. ~ Dr. Jeanne Iris

Announcements:

I have demonstrated or will demonstrate the application of this theory at the following locations:

Winged Inspiration


A Bee and a Butterfly in My Garden

Winged Inspiration

Today
a bee flies wistfully
nectar gathering for the hive.

Today
a butterfly shares the space
of time and floral beauty,
collecting heavenly nourishment.

Today
The lavender grows more alluring
in service
to its insect guests.

Today
As my eyes are permitted to view
this treasured scene
of serenity and industry,
I am compelled
to make a difference

for Tomorrow.
