New Surrealism and Contemporary art

Birds on a Reed
36"x48" , mostly hand work on this one with very very little brushwork.
Acrylic on canvas.

unnamed
48"x36", acrylic on canvas. Again we find a another large contemporary piece done almost exclusively using my God given tools, i.e... fingers and palms! There are some stars and other markings scratched into the sky and greens using the end of my brush. This painting was an excersise in just painting purely what i feel with no hint toward structure.



Copper Moon
48"x60", mixed media on canvas.
Textured canvas with many layers on it.  I went through the creative process to that pure place inside thats exists to that conduit from the power flowing in from beyond. Materials include good quality stretched canvas, molding paste and marking. dry time , then a thin layer of latex paint followed by charcoal, acrylics, inks and oil stick.
