Bob and Samie at East End Seaport Museum

| 17 May, 2012 22:40

Here are 2 sculptures I did for a Tattoo show at the Morgan Rank Gallery in East Hampton, NY back in 1999. They will be part of a new tattoo show at the East End Seaport Museum in Greenport, NY. Opening May 26th and runs through October 28th, 2012. Bob and Samie are both life size so you can come and have your photo taken with whichever body you desire.

Enamel on Canvas • 2010 • 24" x 18"

In 2010 we visited friends in Tucson, Arizona and hiked the surrounding

mountains that were covered with the Saguaro Cactus.  I came away

with the feeling that these majestic plants possess a spiritual power.

This is the first of 2 paintings that explored this intuitive feeling.

A painting about what it might be like after global warming has raised 

 the sea level enough to cover Manhattan and warmed the water enough

 to bring up the tropical Spotted Ray.

Visiting friends in Becket, Massachusetts I took a photo of these

trees that were silhouetted against a sunrise on the background lake.

ENERGY FIELD PAINTINGS

| 25 April, 2012 19:23

My high gloss enamel paintings explore objects and the visualization of the energy fields that surround them. I take the object out of its literal setting and place it in an alternative abstracted environment of color, marks and optical effects. These paintings progress intuitively, where objects and marks accumulate in no predefined manner but instead grow through a process of balancing one against the other.
