Addicts'
Dreams
The
array of addictions is legion, including, but not limited
to chocolate, swirled ice cream, beautiful people, news
reports, the internet and roulette. The common element
in all addictions, be they benign or malign, is the longing
for perfection. Here, the artist arranges the elements
of the painting so that they hint at, point towards an
experience of perfection. |

Blank
Moment
The
rectangle smolders with a dark, sultry, red-spectrum
energy. These are configurations which communicate an
important presence after sunset. |

Blue
Blatherings
We
take brief excursions into the domain of blueness. Those
casual forays keep us safely away from the deeper oratory
of tragedy. The mood is mobile, shifting. An experiment
in blue, and then on to the next hue.

Blue
Room
The
images of the Blue Room let us know that there is room
for blue in our day, along with a number of other moods.
The natural collection of rounded forms suggests elements
for construction.

Challanged
Times
The
challenge of our times is to strip away the excessive,
the redundant, and the misleading. With that accomplished
we experience the essence of the situation. The artist
has successfully represented that process. The image lures
us in with its lean, graphic wisdom.

Chick
Multiple
ovals and circles represent the basic forms of early
life. The chick might spring from the protecting spheres,
embarking on a new journey. These images lead us toward
movement, renewal, hope, and emerging possibility. |

lchooseyou
A
robust rectangle occupying an unexplained intersection.
To what destination do the roads travel? The allure of
travel rests in the surprises which we will experience.

Jab
Packets
of energy are the theme. This is an experience of yet-to-be-connected
elements. They are the parts of the greater whole which
will emerge at the proper moment.

Neon
Ramblings
A
splash of exuberance. The figure is trimmed with brightness.
The strokes hint at motion.
|
|

Ruddy
Cynic
Circular
patterns radiate out, east and west. A halo of light surrounds
the circular forms. Imagine movement.

Shopaholic
Voices
The
voices of the shopaholics soothe and comfort each other.
The images affirm the golden glow of meaningful acquisition,
while the purple section hints at the longing for royal
status. The shopaholic and the learned collector can easily
change places.
|
|
|
Skinny
Life
The
mood is flippant, casual. Spontaneity rules the moment.
The image conveys the attitude of unwinding, perhaps before
the more serious venture.

SMS
Confessions
Defining
a target is not always easy. There are distractions, imperfections.
We need to clear away the extraneous.

Sunrise
This
is a basic, elemental configuration. The work is an exercise
in both simplicity and contrast. There are echoes of an
Asian influence. That which we see has been trimmed to
its robust essence.

Tadpole
This
image suggests an in-between state, something transitional,
as the tadpole itself. Ahead is the amphibian, a creature
adapted for life in two environments. Do we live in multiple
environments?
|

Violet
Pad
We
are confronted with the reality of fissures. Sometimes
the world is whole, and at other times it splits into sections.
We have a choice. Accept the fragmentation, or work to
restore unity.

Tea
Leaves
The
swirling, distributed pattern of tea leaves tells a story
about what has gone before. Come to this picture for a
sense of soothing refreshment.

Wax
Wax
combines qualities which are felt to be opposites. On the
one hand it easily takes an impression. On the other, it
maintains its form for long spans of time. This image shapes
itself to the needs of your environment.
