New Year, New Work

"Expulsion of The Great Ape", mixed media, 45x36"
I wish kicking old habits were done so with the finesse and grace of Bruce Lee sailing bodies around a room. Truth is brother.... t'aint so. You try exiling them to the most remote places you can find or conjure....."No cable, no kids, no pets".They're always on your heels, no matter how hard or fast you run. Reminding you of what you wish you could forget.



"Ponce De Leon", mixed media, 45x36"
I was asked by a non artist friend why I paint. "Well it's not for money or praise.", I told him. Truth is, it makes me happy, content and the older I get, the fewer things I find in this world that do so. Also, I'm fascinated with the process of taking an idea and making it exist.... "Making something from nothing." Creating a myth.
