  • Sylvia

    Sylvia – acrylics on board, 16″ x 20″, 2002

    I’d like to say that this piece has something to do with Sylvia Plath… so I will.

  • Humility

    Humility, 2001
    Humility – oils on board, 48″ x 48″, 2001.

    It was created in the aftermath of the attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. I happened to be living in NYC at the time and worked in Times Square. That was a day of trauma for most of us. I sought to portray how one can find healing through reconnecting with their environment… being “humbled” by the natural world around you. The opposite of hubris; particularly the kind that would lead people to hypercapitalism and reactionary acts of terror. The moon, shining in the darkness, represents a hope to which an individual might give their soulful attention in challenging times. The tree in the background represents what’s to come once humility is embraced.

    Histrionics – acrylics on canvas, 24″ x 30″, 2001

    Semi-autobiographical take of feelings around the time of September 2001.

  • Floating

    Floating, 2003
    Floating – acrylics on board, 24″ x 24″, 2003

    This painting was actually a remake; the older version has been lost. This new interpretation was better; with better color choices and vibrancy.

  • Citiflower

    Citiflower – acrylics on board, 24″ x 24″, 2003

    An interpretation of New York City in the springtime.
