Guitar Soloist
I am always inspired by music, and in creating a work of visual art, what is most real about the moment is not in the accuracy of the musician’s actual appearance. I am not interested in repeating what the musician looks like. I am interested in conveying the real feeling of the music and player.

Socializing At A Bar
There’s a lot to say about food and drink and socializing around a table. A huge part of culture and even art history. Covid-19 has really blotted out that part of our lives. This large painting was inspired by the times in 2020, looking forward to the day we could once again socialize at a bar; meanwhile, California wildfires were also raging, everywhere was smoky, I canceled a backpacking trip, and I wanted some laughter and joy.
