I am not a member of the creative class. I don’t frequent coffee shops nor am I a member of any particular scene. I am an artist, I paint pictures and sell them for a living. I have dedicated my life into producing a body of work that represents my thoughts and feelings using such arcane materials as oil paint, canvas and brushes. I am not interested in appealing to the sensibilities of an art world that has long since lost any sense of meaning and soul. Instead, I relate often satiric tales onto canvas using the devices I have learned by studying the work of true painters that came before me – Titian, Rubens, Beckmann, DeKooning, Benton, and Levine and interweave narratives and historical allusions into new tales of woe and revelations of a lost innocence and omnipresent foreboding.
