I alternate between straight abstract paintings, in which there is no discernible subject, and figurative paintings. Each type of painting generates a creative energy in a way that life events or other forces of my imagination do not. It seems as if all the pent up energy which is being stored while subjecting myself to the rigors of creating a realistic image then zam out onto a new canvas in ways I can't predict. In fact, I don't really know why I create either type of painting. I just go with whatever inspires me.
Here are some paintings which haven't appeared on the blog yet. Eventually, I will catch up to present day and begin posting work as I complete it.
