About The Artwork
I had been turning this idea over in my mind for about fifteen years. I had reservations as to weather or not I could execute this idea. I went to a local greenhouse and photographed the geraniums. This I used as subject matter. The fighter jet is an F14 Tomcat which has been a workhorse of modern military. I hope the viewer gets aa sense of beauty and irony from this painting. The jet airplane is both beautiful and deceptive. On one side it is a beautiful technological feat. On the other side it is a very expensive killing machine. I have been painting with oil paints for a long time, I am comfortable with this medium. The style is an observational painting. I intend to produce a series paintings based on this concept.

United States
I consider myself a regionalist painter. Similar in philosophy as Edward Hopper, Thomas Hart Benton and Andrew Wyeth. Instead of attaching themselves to a particular movement, they pushed their art into an individualist pursuit. About 35 years ago I started out to be a graphic designer. My tenure in that workforce was short lived and in retrospect I never liked design as much as fine arts. I have been painting on a daily basis now for around twenty years. I like the idea of being versatile with my skills, and I try not to limit myself to one particular subject matter. Having good drawing skills is important to me, and i believe it is an asset to all kinds of disciplines.
