Women, with Towel shows another in the mirror. A third appears in outline, derived from the Portrait of a Young Woman, recently attributed to Leonardo. Her outline is done with a water color pencil, otherwise the work is acrylics. The background is applied with a knife. Original and prints.

Two Men Dance
Another in the series of the “Pareja Enamorado con Amor/Couple in Love with Love” series explores the world of same sex love and romance.
Love takes many forms. We should not oppress it but encourage its flowering and deepen the bonds that hold us together.
Go, Figures
Go, Figures
Go, Figures started life as a regular modeling session but in acrylics, not the usual way to go. It evolved into this. The background is inspired by František Kupka’s Mme Kupka (1910). He was a Czech artist and she his wife. I saw the painting at the Nieu Gallery in NYC, at a special exhibit that included some of Klimt’s famous paintings.
Panamanian Women in Multi Color
This is another version of my Panamanian friend. The background is inspired by František Kupka’s Mme Kupka (1910). He was a Czech artist and she his wife. I saw the painting at the Nieu Gallery in NYC, at a special exhibit that included some of Klimt’s famous paintings.
Palau de la Musica Small Stage
Another in the series of paintings based on drawings done at the Palau de la Musica in Valencia, Spain. The audience waits expectantly as the musicians arrive. Valencia has a long and powerful tradition of symphonic bands and offer many free concerts each year. This is a smaller hall and here you can listen to more traditional music.
Panamanian Woman II
This is another version of Panamanian Woman. I got to know my Panamanian friend when we lived in Panama when we were in the Peace Corps. We lived and worked in the mountains and got to know quite a few people in that coffee producing community.
Portrait of Panamanian Woman
She has become a diva for me. I knew her in Panama. She has a knack for modeling, which aside from being intelligent, friendly and attractive, makes her a delight to paint and draw. I have several other paintings based on her.
Self Portrait
Self Portrait of My Own Self With Shaved Head
I shaved my head because I had so little hair left anyway. It was nonetheless a shock to see myself in the mirror, looking so unlike me. No one else seems to think so.
