Scatter


Scatter 24" x 24" oil


This painting came after my painting "Identity" and almost in response to it. In Identity, everyone is divided up into neat silos. Everyone in a cup, tucked away with the like-minded. In this painting comes the realization that really, we are on our own. We are not in our groups. We are individuals, scattered. The upside is of course freedom. The downside is isolated powerlessness.

Where have all the marbles gone?

I honestly am throwing these paintings up here, because I like them, they have sold, and I want a place to quickly show people some things I have done. I have not painted since March, and don't expect to until September. I had a family emergency that has kept me from doing the thing I love. I need to reorganize everything in a way that makes sense to me. Technology makes it hard because it keeps changing. The only thing you can count on, is change.

Cabin Fever

  Cabin Fever 14”x11” oil on stretched canvas. May of 2020. I just really loved painting this. We were in lockdown. The reflection in this teapot has my family, trapped. The heat of it is spewing steam but it’s a happy steam. I liked having my family around me. I missed my friends. Although in some ways it was very trying, Lockdown was, for me, about love.
