ABOUT THE ARTWORK

Part of the current series of paintings using tar and housepaint in addition to more conventional artists' media such as oil and acrylic. Free shipping on this piece: Artist's Statement: "I recognize that this image is a bit creepy. I painted this during the coronavirus, with Passover (familiar to Christians and Jews) on the way. If you are a person of faith, you will understand that the message is ultimately hopeful, however. "I have been making these paintings beginning with a basic form using tar, a materials I worked with way back that I have begun using again because of its extraordinary beauty and physical principles. Then I go in with oil and acrylic, and generally use the house paint to flatten the surface and add to the negative space, reducing the more solid forms that push forward. This is one of the few thus far that I have done on paper." I would recommend framing this piece behind non-glare glass, with a mat of ivory color.

I have been selling my art worldwide since around 1990. For eight years I had a gallery on Magazine Street in New Orleans; I sold it in 2019 and moved everything online - which is where things seemed to be headed. My paintings are in fine collections from Beirut, to London, to mansions in Aspen and the California wine country. But it's important to me that the prices not rise to where they are unaffordable for collectors who are not wealthy; so I try to keep them reasonable. My influences include Cy Twombly, Robert Rauschenberg, Julian Schnabel and Sean Scully. I have never been interested in the forms I choose for my paintings. I make quick decisions about them. What matters to me is surface quality, color, line quality, negative space. Sometimes the negative space is more important than the forms that push forward.
