"Nightwatch VII" Painting

I guard the borders of the civilized mind. Really. I do. I serve in the Lithuanian National Defense Volunteer Force, and frequently I’m sent to patrol our national borders. Exhausting missions can push one’s consciousness to visions of the other side, the upside down, the void. My art can be entered, like Dracula’s castle, from outside the ordered realm, where apocalypse becomes the norm. The visitor will be welcomed into my own vision of weird-realism, where you should expect the black swan and assume that a serial killer lurks under the clown’s grin. What you will see, when liberated from the chains of the conceivable, will reveal the inconceivable horror. It’s that that I guard against.
