This painting is about the psychological tension fighters encounter just before the bell rings. We don't know if the soldier is looking across the ring toward his opponent, or simply waiting for the bell to ring. His somewhat calm demeanor is played against the coach's stoic expression. The two men are standing still in contrast to what is about to happen; two athletes about to engage in combat. The spectators around the ring are currently disengaged, however, they will soon be an integral part of the ensuing competition. The surroundings are active; strong, colorful horizontals in the ring ropes and the intense diagonals in the background. They suggest the chaos that is about to unfold. This is an oil painting because the medium allows for the development of the figure more accurately and maturely. I am influenced by Sargent's figure paintings and George Bellow's boxing paintings. I am hoping the viewer will be drawn into the unfolding story.

Born 1954 in Weisbaden, GermanyI have been an artist for over 30 years. I have been a portrait painter for most of my art career. I have painted business leaders such as the posthumus portrait of L.L. Bean for the L.L. Bean Company in Freeport, Maine, Marvin Sadik, the former director of the National Portrait Gallery in Washington, D.C. and the late philanthropist Elizabeth Noyce for her private collection. I have painted multitudes of children portraits throughout the years. I am now painting landscapes in oils and pastels and exhibiting my work in the Northeast of the USA.
