Painted on gallery-wrapped canvas, this piece is stretched and ready to hang. At a local parade, I took a photo of a little girl eating flavored ice, sitting on the curb with her doll beside her. The event was Memorial Day. I decided to keep the painting patriotic but in a different way. The child, innocent and hopeful, wears a red and white striped dress. Combined with the blue wall on which she rests, this suggests the American flag even as the stars fade in the background. The jester doll registers its horror.. The brush strokes are vivid and expressive, capturing feeling and the painting has a contemporary look.

I'm a New York artist who has won many awards for my psychologically penetrating paintings. At heart, I am a storyteller. My paintings are usually based on images from the news, magazines, or photos that I take. Something about the image catches my eye - a gaze, a pose, a setting. Often, it is just watching someone interacting with another person or their surroundings, Although many of my subjects are strangers, my paintings become strong psychological studies of them, pushing the boundaries beyond traditional portraiture. My work has a depth of feeling that elicits a strong emotional response from viewers, especially those interested in our changing social, political and cultural landscape and the current of anxiety that exists today. The intimacy and humanism of ordinary people by Goya and Rembrandt inspire me. In my own work, I often paint isolated figures with a haunting gaze, suggesting the current of anxiety that exists in today's world. My moody and mysterious portraits evince strength, vulnerability and emotion while questioning popular ideas about gender, race and beauty.There is often a sense of loss and renewal.
