I just added an interview on my links page. it's with NY- Art News! it's currently live!

This is a new painting called "trump's insane Border Wall Ideas." He actually suggested a moat with crocodiles and deadly snakes, razor wire and spikes on top. I find what's happening on our border and with immigration in general under the current administration tragic sad and just wrong. Tis painting is currently at PAKS Gallery in Austria waiting for the Cannes Film Festival to be rescheduled. (Corona). The art show will be at the Cannes Palace Grand Hotel.

I also have work currently being shown in Milan, Italy, associated with my work being included in a book "The Best Modern and Contemporary Artists 2019". These Italian curators, Francesco Saviero Russo and Salvatore Russo found my work on Facebook. They have given me the honor of my work being included in the above mentioned book, the show Mantova Biennale, a Michelangelo award which came with a book of the work of all of the award artists, and an image of mine in "Art International Contemporary Magazine". This has all been very exciting for me! Look in the folder Publications of My Art.

And now I have received a "Leonardo Da Vinci award from same curators!

I am also working on my "Symbiotic Revolutionary Army", the most peaceful army ever (I just stole the SOUND of the name from those Patti Hearst kidnappers!). The Goddesses basically represent plant, human, animal and mineral peacefully coexisting. We humans have been living like parasites on the planet for far too long. We need to get to a state of symbiosis, mutually beneficial relationships between us and mama earth and between each other. I was partly inspired by the Women's March this year, I have been making art for quite some time that is from the perspective of the victim which can be powerful but sad. I'm ready for some hope. My original plan was to display them in a huge spiral perhaps rising higher as they spiral in however I keep getting images in my head from that Women's March...maybe they will be in a formation like a protest march. Images in portfolio under Symbiotic Liberation Army!


I make message driven art because I believe we can use art to help change the " f...ed up world. I am trying to affect compassion in viewers. And I hope to make the world a tiny bit more beautiful with my art.
