Quick Notes on the Origins of Some Paintings

  • Self Portrait as a Landscape: This is an imaginary landscape and the symbolism is designed around my ideas about knowledge and being.  The central building  is the primary interest base.  The smaller buildings are secondary interest. (The initial idea was about how Southern landscapes are dotted with family homes and smaller next generation houses,)  The dead orchard. . . The main highway and the road less taken. The fires that are burning off bad ideas.  The reflective silos are like memory banks.

  • View of Zoo: The Lafayette River as seen from the 26th/27th Street Bridge in Norfolk, Virginia.

  • Suburban Scene: Morning in Winona Neighborhood, Norfolk, VA.  The cat is a memory image that was added in.  The memory is of my cat rushing out the door as I drove up the drive way.  It was her first attempt at rushing outside.

  • West of Suffolk

  • HIghway Homes: Square

  • Highway Homes: After Storm

  • Toledo Wash: Gold

  • Toledo Wash: Night

  • Chuckatuck: Grassy Path I
  • Chuckatuck: Grassy Path II
  • Chuckatuck: Fallen Giant
  • Chuckatuck: Grassy Square
  • Chuckatuck: Lake &  Trees
  • Lake Wright
  • South Carolina Boundary: This is a memory painting of my grandfather's farm house between Marion and Mullins, SC.  The dogs were added  from a photo taken near Elizabeth City, NC.  The dogs reminded me of the country/farm dogs that greeted visitors and threatened passer-bys. They were the early warning system for farm families.

  • Low Country, NC Bridge
  • Lake Smith: Reflections:  Was in a corporate collection, but went into receivership of Chase-Manhattan. I would like to know of  the new owner and to acquire a digital picture. This is a stunning painting with an equally stunning history.  It  was selected in a competition for a condominium collection but later traded for another "calmer" painting. A resident of the condominium was convinced (a completely unfounded assumption) that there were demons swimming in the water.

  • Clouds, Clouds, Clouds: A progressive vertical triptych
  • Lafayette Bridge
  • Greenbriar Orchard
