When visitors wander the studio they tend to be drawn to my paintings of large faces. When creating these works I lay down fresh marks into just made marks, creating marbled blends of color. Often I add words, either obviously or subliminally. I'd like to think these features are what draw attention but-The head alone has an iconic almost postage stamp or money-like authority that commands attention.

Good Riddance Valentine

Winds of the north, south, east and west,

Carry my affections to where they'll be best.

Let her heart be open and free

And carry them away from me.
