Painting: Oil painting on wooden box. Painting continues around the edge. This is the frame. Each painting from this recent body of work has “Time Peace” printed on the front of the painting. “Time Piece” is a double entendre, referring to both artworks about time, and a clock (a instrument of measurement). The paintings in this body of work has the subject presented in a contextual field of some sort, presenting the field or framing device as artistic conceit, to help focus and concentrate the image. In this case the Volkswagen floats in a field of a chartreuse yellow. A color very popular in the early 1960s. In this pop art portrait of “the peoples car” the Volkswagen bug becomes a transcendent sign of the future. If we believe advertising, we will all be young and cool forever. But in truth everything is novel, innovative, new only for a moment.

From 1985 to the present, I have been living and working in San Antonio, Texas as a professional artist. During this period of time, I have had 26 solo exhibitions and have participated in many group shows. I have approximately 400 paintings in private and public collections including the San Antonio Museum of Art (San Antonio, Texas) and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. General artistic concerns and themes: At the core of my methodology is a commitment to the ‘tradition’ of painting, to understanding the historical dialogue between surface and illusion, the pictorial and the plastic, subject and content. For approximately the past 20 years, I have been investigating, in general the issue of mediated representation and, specifically, the problematic relationship between image and its referent. The problem of making art intelligible is fundamentally semantic, not aesthetic. In my work, painting subjects (e.g. still life, landscape, animals, etc.) become convention ready-mades’, a foil, by which to explore the relationship between neutral subject, and active concept. Often with irony and humor, I hope to encourage the viewer to recognize the inherent slippage- the subject depicted as subject, and the painting as an artistic conceit as content. Also what I hope to be obvious in this work is the joy of painting , and the excitement of participation in the creative process.
