Nocturne
This new painting is one of several that have the title, "Nocturne". This is not so much recycling an idea as taking it & finding new ways to interpret it.

Lost in the Coils of Primavera
A new ink drawing of Primavera...I was always fascinated by the way Leonardo etc. (Botticelli & Raphael, for example) incorporated coils, spirals and other geometric forms into organic drawings...here is one of mine...

The Afternoon of a Faun, 1992
An ink drawing from 1992, back when I lived in Paris. I don't think I've photographed this one before. It's a flawed piece...the proportions are way off...but it has something I like, so here it is.
The Afternoon of a Faun, 1992, brush & ink on paper, 25.5" x 19.75" approx.

Drowning in a Sea of Worlds
This was an almost-finished drawing from 2009 that I've been looking at for a while. Today I took it out & did some more work to it, to an extent that I now consider it finished.
