Art Association of Harrisburg Show--"Magic One," Monotype, Native American

Painting #14 of 21 at the Art Association of Harrisburg in Harrisburg, PA thru November 25, 2009

This figure appeared in one of my latest monotypes.  I never planned on creating such a figure, but there it was.   There is such a serenity about this figure that I want to become one with it.  Perhaps it is a part of my soul and psyche and I just don't realize it.  These monotypes do seem to take on a life of their own with a being that comes from out of the blue.  On to paper where they can be seen with a message for modern day society--a little more peace and serenity would do us all well.

Art Association of Harrisburg Show--"Deux Femmes et un Chien," Oil Painting, Old Europe

Painting #13 of 21 at the Art Association of Harrisburg in Harrisburg, PA thru November 25, 2009

Just a noonday stroll along a street of the old town.  So much character from the ages of life in its quarters--you can almost feel the footsteps of those who have preceded.  I love to walk through the narrow alleys, poke my nose into the shops of so many different sorts, watch people as they go about their daily lives, much like these two young women from a few centuries back are doing.

Art Association of Harrisburg Show--"Transitions," Oil Painting, A Tribute to Women

Painting #10 of 21 at the Art Association of Harrisburg in Harrisburg, PA thru November 25, 2009

One day these women appeared on my canvas as if demanding to be seen. I only complied with their demand. There was no way to deny them. Maybe the painting is a tribute to women of the world, many of whom are still striving to find their places of equality regardless of religion, color, ethnicity or demands of the society in which they live.

I felt a strong sense of history as I painted these women almost as if I had lived through each of these transitions: woman hidden in the society of the mosque, woman bending her head beholden to the demands made of her, and woman finally emerging into a place where she could begin to express her being in other ways. The doors of light hold hope for new and exciting transitions.

Transitions, Oil on Canvas, 32"X 27" (framed size), $1500 USD

Art Association of Harrisburg--"Solitude," Oil Painting Set in a Cistercian Abbey

Painting #9 of 21 at the Art Association of Harrisburg in Harrisburg, PA thru November 25, 2009

Just wandering thru the halls of one of the beautiful Cistercian abbeys of France, this woman and her dog seem content with life.  Their beauty complements the graceful line of abbey architecture.

I paint a great number of abbeys.  Where this desire comes from I know not.  Perhaps it harks back to an earlier time when life was less complicated with less need for consuming goods.  Or perhaps it just speaks to the simplistic beauty of these structures.  Have you ever heard the glorious sounds of a choir singing under the vaulted ceilings?

Solitude, Oil on Canvas, 38" X 38" (framed size), $3300 USD
