Turbulence

This was an experiment in depth perception using colors and texturing.
If you look closely at the blue area, you will see that it is broken up in a
texture known as "craquelure". An unexpected outcome of this
work is what appears to be the profile of a man's face at center left,
giving the work the appearance of being turbulent thoughts exploding into
the cosmos.

Regret

Originally this was an experiment in depth perception using shading and a
single hue. Many people remark that it reminds them of rose petals.
However, this similarity was unintentional.
Woman Contemplating
30 x 40
Originally, this work began with my tinkering with a photo of my girlfriend.
I had no end result in mind. Today, I find this work increasingly
fascinating, because it seems that many latent emotions emerged during its
creation. The swirling red and yellow give it a feeling of a raging
fire trying to burn away a resilient heart. It could be interpreted as
a woman finding refuge in her own, strong heart against the
over-powering and self-destructive forces of emotion, love, passion, or
whatever forces are trying to overwhelm here. This seems now more than
a simple image. It is the focal point of a woman's intense, internal
struggle.
Ice Age
24 x 36
I named this "Ice Age" because it gives me the same feelings I experience
when I view some artist's rendering of life during the Ice Age. In it,
I seem to feel humanity's struggle against the primal elements of
snow, cold, mud, sharp fragments of ice, and glaciers. Perhaps this
reminds me of a distant past life. Interestingly the browns could also
be taken for animal skins, which during the Ice Age, which have probably
been seen as symbols of comfort: clothing and bedding.

Morning Glory

In this I see not the flower, but the glorious, steady emergence of the
morning sun against the dark of night.
