Original abstract pastel drawing on paper mounted on canvas. Side edges of canvas painted black, ready to hang. Build-up of layers of rich blocks of color with a velvety luminosity emanating a lot of colored light and an undercurrent of movement. Part of the Lost Angels series. Created for a solo exhibit at the Notre Dame des Arts Chapel Gallery, in Ubbergen, the Netherlands. The idea of art in a chapel, a large space with abundant light, reverberating sound, stained glass intercepting the light from above, the meditative special effects of religious ceremony. The site was once a convent and a boarding school for girls, "Notre Dame des Anges." Behind the idea of the art is that humans have the potential to do great things (creatively and technically), but this may go unrealized as things get in the way. Nevertheless the internal, portable, positive energy of the individual, though dormant, can become awakened and a great source of happiness if it is allowed to be free. This is a personal matter. The art is not finished by the artist, it is ongoing, completed in the imagination of the viewer.

Hi. I am a North Carolina-based artist. At some point, the world broke into particles, for me. I realized that matter was interchangeable. Everything is significant, in that, it is part of everything else. I start with matter and see how it comes together. There might be realistic elements or not. Mostly, my Art is about the glory of life. If we can find it. Recently, I am creating whimsical paintings with brightly colored tempera and latex (see these series: Memory Possibilities, Loblolly Memory Pad). Who knows what will be next? I was juried into the Orange County Artists Guild, OCAG, (Carborro, NC) in February, 2020. I moved to North Carolina in March 2018, after having lived in Miami for 33 years. Originally from the Chicago area, I was a founding member of the experimental art rock band Merz Pix. Private collectors across the US and the globe (France, the UK, the Netherlands, Tasmania, Japan) have purchased my works.
