As an artist I often create “pretty” things that people love and buy to decorate their homes. There is nothing wrong with decorative work and I enjoy making it. However, in this new series called “The Looking Glass” I am getting in touch with a more visceral side of my being. I am allowing images to form without thought of decor matching or mass appeal. I am just “being” and what forms forms. This painting titled “The Samurai” is very powerful to me. It evokes strong emotions of strength but also of protection and safety. I’d like this to hang in my entry way to my home. The colors and image are strong, but the essence is soft and comforting. What does he make you feel?
