About The Artwork

On the night of the verdict of the trial about the murder of Harvey Milk and Moscone, the crowd rose up in protest over the injustice of the trial. Dan White, the shooter, had claimed mental insanity feeding on junk food, which came to be called the "twinkie defense" and received only 5 years in prison. The crowd responded by burning police cars claiming "the twinkies made us do it". Milk had accomplished in a short time the opening of gay rights in San Francisco that later transcended to the rest of the US in the 2000s by tearing down the wall of invisibility gays had lived under previously.

From witnessing the Fall of the Berlin Wall inside the Iron Curtain to seeing the National Strike in Spain or the launch of the Euro in Brussels, history and politics dominant my themes. My art process is two-fold. Occasionally, the whole image springs forth like Athena from the head of Zeus while in others the image develops through the painting process itself. I strive to always develop my talent, master new styles and move to new direction similar to Picasso's development. A title must be meaningfully and the art must never repeat itself. I mastered my initial style under the tutelage of Tom Thomas in the Indiana cornfields.
