Did You Live a Good Life

Did You Live a Good Life

When creating this piece I was reading a lot of inspirational books and exploring different avenues in my life. I was watching T.V. and saw a medical commercial with a heart beat going across the screen. I immediately came up with this concept. I went to my Mom’s work and I asked to be hooked up to a heart machine so i could get a read out of my heart beat…I was to calm so it didn’t really register any real profound dips in my heart beat. Thankfully. So I jumped up and down to produce more movement. I knew I wanted to have an irregular look to the heart beat. As in life, nothing is regular. I wanted this piece to speak to people in such a way where it would provoke you to go after what you truly want in this life.

This piece was originally sold back in 2013 and I was able to re-acquire it after the original buyer passed away. This is probably one of the closest, self portrait paintings, I’ve created.

The Surf

The Surf

I’ve always been fascinated with surfing.

How it becomes a lifestyle…how it takes over the soul. I can only imagine the silence as the surfer goes under the wave. I wonder if the ocean talks…or do you have to be ready to hear it?

Music always inspire me.

I wanted to play with only 2 colors and see how I could make negative and positive space.

More taping and many coats of white and black to make it just right.

New Orleans

A great friend commissioned me to paint a scene of New Orleans…It has a special place in her heart.
