Manscapes
The best way to describe
the 'voice' or 'style' I've found to tell my story is through what I
call MANSCAPES. I love painting and drawing images of men and my
favorite work is when I get this layering effect going, where I show a
sea of men in concert with one another, socializing, cruising, dancing
and you know where your mind will lead you with that line of thinking.
I've chosen to even transform my rather ordinary landscapes into
ghostly manscapes. The best example of landscape transformation is the
painting NIMBY, meaning Not In My Back Yard. It started out as a
imaginary garden scape that got carved out into a view of a saltwater
bay and Mt. Baker. I added a UFO and later three gay lovers sitting and
standing on the hillside. That painting can be found in the restricted
Painting Galleries.
