About the Item

My paintings are designed to be conceptual and narrative based arrangements to stoke the imaginations of viewers. There is always something beyond the initial "muscle flexing" of realism. Props are my anthropomorphic characters acting out dramas on soda pop stages. I construct little dioramas and with oil on a brush I immortalize the activity. I work pretty hard to create still lifes that tend to be anything but still. By infusing inanimate objects with a personality, I am able to explore the human narrative outside of personal biases and leanings. In some ways, I think of myself as a director creating a play. The soda crates are my stage with apples, balloon dogs, and Oreos as my thespians. Act 1 is laid out for the viewer. But I stop there. I want my viewers to be compelled to wonder about Act II and Ill. Often, even I find the resulting stories quite amusing. As a matter of fact, I enjoy using the taboo of humor in my paintings and take it as a challenge to create humorous works that have a lasting impact. My hope is that others get a smile or laugh too.
