Look how this little boy studies the dandelion, while a large, open landscape stretches out behind him.
Many people have compared this painting to "Christina's World" by Andrew Wyeth. I can certainly understand, although it wasn't a concsious decision on my part. The child was painted from a photo I took of my son, but the background -based on the wide open scenery in Southern Illinois- is invented.

Don't you love to sit on a secluded beach, gazing out over the vast expanse of deep blue? A warm gentle breeze sends the tall beach grass into whispers. The waves gently roll and break on the sandy shore. In the distance, storm clouds roll by, but here all is peaceful and calm. You wish this moment could last forever. Well, it can...

Lazy Sail Boat
16"w X 20"h
Imagine sitting in the chair on the beach, watching the sail boat drift lazily by.
A cool breeze blows off Lake Michigan, rustling the tall beach grass and providing
a small amount of relief from the rare sweltering Northern Michigan summer day.

Of a meeting with the Devil!"
Ein Sof (The Infinite) Grouping
Oil with gold and silver leaf on canvas
$225.00
Female 5"X7" $55.00 Trinity 11"X14" $175.00 Male 5"X7" $55.00
From time to time, I like to express spiritual ideas in paint. This grouping is accented with real gold leaf. The leaf was applied to the canvas and sealed before painting . The light loves to play with the metal and colors!
The central piece Depicts The Father releasing The Son into The Tree of Life, or the world. The abstract designs represent the abstract idea of The Holy Spirit. The smaller paintings represent woman and man, humanity, and balance. This grouping is displayed joined together with a brass chain.
Adam and Eve with
Bacchus as the Serpent
16"w X 20"h
Oil Painting on Canvas
An Artistic and Personal Statement!
The book of Genesis never tells us what
the forbidden fruit was. When one religion takes over the religion of an
area or people, the conquered religion often demonizes the existing
gods. Here, I've made Bacchus, the Roman god of grapes and wine the
serpent which entices Adam and Eve into the first sin with grapes and
wine.
