street traffic
I just finished this for the Clinton Hill Art Gallery, Brooklyn NY. L.B. Brown likes how I paint balloons, this being the third of a little series. Oil on panel. 11"x14".
pleasance
Right around Christmas time, ah what a thing to view the American pastoral from the moon on a cold day with a warm fake fire.
pool side
the pervading emptiness inside is outside forgotten with a lounge by the pools edge. 9x12 oil on paper.
undercovers
It is nice to show playfulness. I tried to capture this and don't know if i was successful- there are supposed to be two people in this painting. 9x12 oil on paper.
high five
getting around on a bike is fun and celebrating good decision making adds to the excitement. 12x16 oil on paper.
i am listening
I was very inspired by the donut. And more importantly a painting by Jules de Balincourt. An important meeting featuring a member with a drum. Oil on paper 9x12.
good match
Tracy Emin's bed with a racket. It wasn't supposed to be her bed it just turned out that she had a nice bed. Or the photo someone took of it was the angle i needed to place the racket. Oil on paper 9x12.
helping hands
Sometimes there are images that need a place like a fanciful line that needs a poem. I had an idea for this image and liked a few pictures i had hanging around so as to help me bring this idea to life. Many hands assisting in the lowering of a bucket to the depths of a near empty pool strikes a pleasant cord for me.
bucket brigade
The wild fires in California as with any catastrophe seem to bring people to work towards a common goal. This painting says, the absurdity of how we choose to work against the power of natural disasters. It is a sketch for thought and is 12x16 oil on paper.
saying goodbye
Leaving the ground has always fascinated me. Seeing a postcard in a bookstore that was very make believe led me to this painting. I think this is maybe a happy painting of the husband/father going only off to work in a 1950's sort of fantastic future reality. 12x16 oil on paper. I added an out of ground pool because it was summer when this was painted.
watering
I have been interested in Privet hedges as property boundaries and privacy makers. This is also a 12x16 oil on primed paper.
