New Anthropometry Paiting

This one is 36" square and a challenge. I didn't know where this one would go to. After the paint was applied I decided to spray the canvas with water, to allow the paint to run, and now I see more than what originally there. I think I will leet this dry, and return to it later to see if I still see it and where i should let the piece take me.

Anthropometry Paintings

Well it seems like it has been forever since I posted, and I must apologize for that. Life has been really busy as of late. Going to be relocating soon to a suburb of Charleston, SC. Working on showing our house, going south to check out real estate, interviews, and just walking on the beach. Though I have most things packed and ready to move, I have also been selling a lot of my work at considerably lower prices to move it here so I do not have to move it south. But in the process, I have been limited on what I can produce with it all in boxes, totes, and secured away. So my thoughts went to Yves Klein and Lei Wen who utilized the human body as a paint brush to give us a new option of art. The two pieces I have done use more than just blue or yellow, though I feel they exhibit a more visual display of color and form.

These pieces were such a therapeutic means of getting back in touch with my art. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. Prints are also available through my Fine Art America gallery.

"VIRUS"

Okay about a week ago I had a dream, sadly with "life" it just kind of was put on hold. Well, here is the dream, and the piece.


A world where people feed on each other due to some sort of virus that killed off most animal supplies for food. These with money were able to sustain themselves through a chemical supplement; those that were not as lucky were known as SCRUDS. Security was able to track down these scruds because of the chemical not in their bodies gave off a sort of scanned emulation that was traceable, and then were eliminated. Since of course most of the animal used for food died off, there were still those that survived; rats in the sewers, some domestic animals, but even they fell prey to the virus, and were dying as well; causing a more viral issue than with just the animals. Since humans still had the basic need for love or at minimum companionship, it led to a cross breeding of the virus among the SCRUDS. Again, it came upon the security to find and kill these carrying the virus and spreading it to the so called elite.
