And the black smoke rises
From the fires we've been told
It's the new age crisis
And we will stand up in the cold
Stand up in the cold

Stay awake for the dawn that comes
Awake for the light at the

Just wait and see

Damaged Heart

Damaged Heart
30x48

Damaged Heart was painted rather quickly, but it took a lot of time for contemplation.  I wanted to evoke Frida Kahlo without copying her.  I used the Two Fridas as a base.  The colors and reference to her heart were prominent, as well as her frequent use of flowers in her hair.

Dancing without Feet

Dancing without Feet
30x48

Dancing without Feet is 6 different paintings.  Layers of paint create a wonderful texture like alligator scales.  I found myself drawn to Frida Kahlo in the last version an am convinced that she is dancing without feet away from pain and death.

Dark Horse

Dark Horse24x36

Dark Horse is the first of a series of three using a large amount of rust and ink over texture.  This series started three years ago and continued to evolve over time.  Like a lot of my work, there are many layers of different paintings.

Ruby

Ruby Kiss the second of the series of three using a large amount of rust and ink over texture. I experimented the glossy medium and ink to get a deep glistening ink.  At one time this was primarily gray gravel.

Kiss Me K

Kiss Me K
24x36

Kiss Me K is the second of the series of three using a large amount of rust and ink over texture. Pouring paint had become a more familiar tool when I completed this painting.  Someone said it reminded them of Klimt's The Kiss.  There came the name. Like a lot of my work, there are many layers of different paintings.
