Muddying the Waters

This is a series of 8 paintings that I intend on extending to 16 or more. The series is entitled "Byzantium"; it's ironically (?) based on the poetry of W B Yeats. The overarching theme is the confrontation between a search for ideal form and the realty of the human condition. It's a debate that rarely ends in anything but skepticism and nihilism. Doubt is our dilemma and our destiny yet we live in a world that relishes aggressive certainty.... The muddying has to do with the range of styles that are incorporated; at least that's how I believe many will view it.

New Work


 I had a major computer crash where all my data was lost and windows 7 disappeared! But I am back...if anyone is still out there? This is a painting from the last month and you can see my work is getting more abstract though I will never lose contact with the human body. One thing I will say is those little amoeba like things are an artistic rendering of smallpox.
