The City

"The City" - July 2009
11" x 14" Gallery Wrapped Canvas
Acrylic

While working on this painting - just trying things out really - it started to feel like a dreamlike clouded vision of walking through perhaps New York City - people passing by, buildings all around and in the distance, not really clearly seeing any individual thing...

The City, I found myself...

Crying In Separate Rooms

Crying in separate rooms,
We both want it to stop.

We deny what we can't.

It is a part of us now.

Art Screams

Art screams as people say "Look at those colors! Check out that brushwork!"

What art really says is "I AM NOT CONTENT!"

We Are Society

We scream discontentment..as we trudge further into the machine.

We cry for a better life..as we bitch for free music from our friends.

This society is killing us..and we are society.

Ashes

"Ashes" - 2009
24" x 30" Gallery Wrapped Canvas
Acrylic

Having painted a bunch of sunflowers already, I wanted to do something a bit different with this one. So I brought the painting outside, covered it with some brown flicks of paint, and it all just suddenly reminded me of something falling slowly from the sky. And that's when it hit me...Ashes.

The more I studied the painting and thought about it, I just had to give it to my parents for Christmas. Although, I no longer recall if I gave it to them Christmas 2009...or 2010. That's gonna bug me now.
