Biography:
"The Power of Self, Portrait with my Father" was painted for this THE POWER OF SELF competition. 16"x16", Oil, January 2010. I decided to work from a photo of my Dad and I taken October 2008 at Exchange Place with Manhattan across the Hudson. I included additional paintings in my portfolio as an example of my work. -- VERY BRIEF BACKGROUND
Some time after an influence of Zen in 2001 and years later an influence of Physics, I started to regain a new desire to create. But the creating process was different. It was no longer creating a pretty picture. It became similar to the process of Inventing. In this mind-set the creation process gained more of a purpose with interesting possibilities to discover. Along this same time period, art competitions calling for original art or murals for new building projects also caught my attention. This approach of creating for the grander scale instead of the individual helped in refocusing my creative energy. My style is in the Impressionist neighborhood but still evolving.
