4 recent paintings I made this past month, thinking a lot about the 20th century’s fascist rise and obviously, today’s. Each is 48” x 36” oil on canvas

4 incomplete paintings I started last week in descending order of completion (all very incomplete ranging from 6 hours of work to 1 hour) 1st is 72” x 48” the rest are 40” x 30”… Michael’s canvas sale can be tremendously beneficial for artists who rarely sell any work. #wip #art

Some artworks from the tale end of last year, oil on canvas, 48” x 36”. It’s disheartening being an artist, I can’t answer why I paint, I can’t justify the expenses of it, but it feels important to make things and I make a lot of them. #art

Some art I’ve made so far this year. The compulsion to create art is a strange need.
