Abstract Violin Oil on canvas panel 20”X24”
A portrait of my next door neighbor. I drew it initially in pencil. I looked only at her without looking down at my work. I liked it so much I decided to paint it. it is done with acrylic on paper.
This is a mixed media painting that was produced on a piece of white heavyweight paper. I began this work a few years ago, by cutting a black monoprint on newsprint into sections and gluing them to the white paper. A figure formed from the positive and negative shapes of the monoprint. I then began drawing a few defining lines of subordinate subjects with ink. I then glued interesting gold and iridescent textile pieces to the work, which added texture, color, and form. After this I painted (with acrylics) the remaining spatial areas, also using a selective amount of gold and bronze metallic acrylic paints. I then refined some areas with ink again, (like the woven planters) and also glued real seashells to the work as accents (for her jewelry). Overall the piece conveys a cubistic feel, with interesting simplified forms, and a variety of patterns and textures which also help to express the Egyptian theme. I enjoyed relating a timeless subject that also contains elements of certain spiritual and philosophical beliefs. The original dimensions of the piece are 23in. X 18in. The initial monoprint and drawing work was established in 2005, and the remaining painted work was completed in 2008.
Compiled from some stock footage. I feel like it is missing something but not sure what…
A small painting in oils done in the cubist style.
This is an abstract work that was comprised of fabrics, gesso, spray paints, and some acrylic paints and india ink. I started with the organization of various shapes and colors of textured fabrics. Some pieces were sewn together and other areas were merely pinned and glued (together or overlapped). Then I painted geometric areas with spray paints and gesso. After the gesso dried, I also painted in shapes with similar colors of acrylics, adding to the overall texture and echoing spaces for greater definition. Ink was also used, which absorbed into the fabrics, bringing the inherent textile texture to the surface. The original dimensions of the work are 24in. X 22in. It was initiated a few years ago and completed in 2008.

Yep, the title sez it all. I have to kick a soccer ball around the park, and Pujji, an English Staffordshire Bull Terrier, will immediately intercept the ball, sometimes with a header, if that’s what’s needed. Then, she’ll expertly nose the ball back to … me, or anyone else nearby … and then shouts out “kick it! kick it!” To the untrained ear, this sounds like “woof! woof!”, but all you have to do is kick the ball away and off she goes. Keep walking, you can even run if you like, because she’ll bring the ball straight back to you! She loves bringing the ball to strangers, especially little kids, so I have to quickly catch up to the unsuspecting, and tell them that she won’t bite, but she wants them to play with her. Sometimes, people come into the park especially just to play with her! And I’m talking very old as well as very young people! Of course, after a huge soccer session, she has to have a cooling drink! The proceeds of all sales go to World Vision, an organisation dedicated to looking after children in Third World countries. .... EXCEPT, while it still runs through Phoenix Appeal, these proceeds will go to the RED CROSS VICTORIAN BUSHFIRE APPEAL. Check out my web site www.twistedirony.com.

Cubism is a style of painting characterized chiefly by an emphasis on formal structure, the reduction of natural forms to their geometrical equivalents, and the organization of the planes of a represented object independently of representational requirements.
