Hi Gene,
ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words and support.
The first image is one of the furniture pieces I have been working with in the last few years. These hang on the wall as "paintings" and then come off the wall as tables.
The second two images are recent paintings in sign painters acrylic
"Retinal Prayer" and "Pay Up Cheaters"
The last two images are created in duct tape.
The two panel piece is 80" x 80" titled "The New Normal"
The last piece is the "Liquid Geometry series"
These "liquid Geometry" series is now in the collection of my dear friend and well known photographer Philipp Scholtz_Ritterman ,who has documented" much of my work in the last few years.
He is the one who has taught me how to do so much of this photo documentation and digital photographic processing, and given freely of his time and knowledge. Our legacy is supported by a network of friends and artists. I believe in the power of a freely shared knowledge.This is why you and I are both teachers.
Thanks for your interest in the work,
Dave
