About The Artwork

This painting was inspired by Winslow Homer's optimistic painting at the end of the Civil War of "Veteran in a New Field." That painting depicts a stout young farmer harvesting wheat in a field, and it embodies the postwar demilitarization of American society. This painting is a harsh contrast of a contemporary old Vietnam era vet with an amputated leg sitting in a wheelchair in the snow in a bleak empty field near a dilapidated farmhouse. There is little optimism for an old vet who's been abandoned by society.

I have worked professionally as an artist for 35 years. Prior to that, I traveled the world as a syndicated photographer and travel writer for the Florida Sunshine Syndicate. I worked as a copy editor for the Los Angeles Free Press, as a screenwriter for Inside Job Productions, as a correspondent for The Washington Post newspaper and Soldier of Fortune magazine - covering stories in the Thar Desert of the India/Pakistan border and along the Misquito Coast of Nicaragua during the Contra war. I worked as an assistant to Academy Award winning French film director, Agnes Varda on a series of her films. In 1995-96, worked as a segment producer and television reporter for the nationally syndicated You Need to Know show at WCFC-TV, Chicago.
