About The Artwork
A sentinel figure stands in front of a burn barrel. The scenario seems straightforward but, upon closer examination, inconsistencies in the behavior of the light cast by the coals are revealed, making the source of the intense glow ambiguous (like the title of the work itself). Is this a homeless man, a dapper passerby or someone else entirely? The bowler hat is a Beckett reference (of which he specifically spoke regarding Didi and Gogo). Is this figure waiting for someone, or is he, in fact, that certain someone who is waited upon? Or is he even more? For me, a significant part of this work's appeal, beyond being a striking image (hopefully!), lies in its open interpretation for the viewer. This painting has been properly oiled-out and may be varnished as of 4/1/2014.

United States
I live in Illinois, usa. I'm currently focused on painting, using traditional methods and techniques. However, I enjoy a variety of styles and methods in the work of others and continue to look for new ways of working. I've worked with everything from wire coat hangers to plastic children's toys in previous work. I value the craftsmanship aspect of my work and try to make art that will last. I'm a novice art historian as well and enjoy referencing the styles and/or techniques of the great artists of the past when it's appropriate to the piece. I'm also an iconoclast who enjoys berating the unabashed crap produced by some contemporary artists such as Prince, Koons, Schnabel and the like.
