Fred Flintstone

"Fred's Paintings"

An experiment with the popular Pretoglyph Look didn't look right until my favorite Stone Age character joined the party.

Stones1

"Living Stones"

I've done 3 of these torturous oil paintings from my color photographs of the glacial moraine quartz stones on Long Island's north shore, Crane Neck.

Stones2

"Crane Neck Stones"

A larger oil "rock painting", 4 x 6 foot canvas.

Gnarly Knockwurst

"Bunzai!"

"Gnarly Knockwurst" was born during the thrill of my first ski trip to Aspen.

Alles Klar!

"Alles Klar!"

The closest I've come to hot dogging like Gnarly Knockwurst was an adventure on Crested Butte's then unopened North Face. A 3-D version is in the works...

Surrealists Convention

"The Surrealists' Convention"
Don't be afraid to express your ideas, even if you're worlds apart.

Rolling Thunder

Rolling Thunder

Portrait of RT, at the Meta Tantay community he founded, in Carlin, Nevada. The Grateful Dead song, "Sunrise" on the Terrapin Station album, refers to RT and this place. Learn more...

Big Hello

"The Big Hello"

You never know who you will encounter on the wild, open road of life.

Long Goodbye

"The Long Goodbye"

This is not a dog. This is a mystery story. Superstitious Mountains.

"Gravity's Rainbow"

Slothrop visits Dali's
Mediterranean retreat.

Zorro

"Notoro Zorro"

An oil painting of an incident involving Zorro on a beach along the Belt Parkway in Brooklyn.

Beach Items

"Beach Items"

More beach madness... perhaps an unconscious reference to Duane Palyka's characters, Eno Frapp and Glick.

Rough Day At Beach

"Rough Day at the Beach"

I like the seashore. It's the end of solid ground and fantastic possibilities seem possible.

Moon Fire

"Moon Fire"

Oil painted radial motion blur...
a nice spot to get together with friends.

"Omkar in the Asteroid Belt"

Try to extend yourself and gain new perspectives whenever you have the opportunity.

Surrealists Circus

"Surrealists' Circus"

Began this painting thinking about Heironymous Bosch and ended up with something reminiscent of my teenage bedroom. Destroyed in a suspicious Dallas July 4th fire in the early 80's, here it is, a new life in cyberspace.

Gumby in Jail

"Gumby In Jail"

Even good clay can have a rough day. See also, my digital Gumby references.

"Beach Balls"

Optical illusions at Jones Beach.

John Lennon

"The Unfinished John Lennon"

An oil painting sketch done around the time of his untimely departure.

The 3 Stooges

The Three Stooges

A watercolor honoring America's cultural heritage of foremost entertainment legends.

Orange Crush

Orange Crush Can

One of a number of watercolor crushed Crush cans. Did these before REM was singing about them. Watercolors flattened onto the paper like an ultra thin, crushed soda can.

beefheart

Captain Beefheart

A serigraph composed from 4 photographs I shot during Don Van Vliet's last known performing tour. See photos from the concert.

mr.rogers

Mr. Roger's Neighborhood

A serigraph expressing the inner child. More about Mr. Rogers.

Gary Coleman

"The Cultural Transmission of Gary Coleman"

A serigraph representing only a small distribution of a once highly broadcasted cute face.

Mill Pond

 

Mill Pond Skating

Photo silkscreen of Mill Pond
Setauket, Long Island, New York

siriusbe

 

"Sirius Being"

A serigraph using a splattered blockout technique, akin to Tamayo and Dubuffet.

Merz Collage

My homage to the work of the Dadaist collage artist, Kurt Schwitters.
