Portrait of Henry Miller
{ 1991 } Oil painting on canvas

The Great American novelist captured in red, white and blue paint { I will confess to utilizing black as well }. My love for the ingenious writing of Henry Miller is perhaps as surreal and Rabellasian as his ravenous and earthen passages themselves.

Besides my fascination with depicting Henry Miller, Buster Keaton and other American icons throughout history, I have also adopted the concept of posting lists and lists of information, words, concepts and charts right on the wall to assist with writing and clarification of thought. Some of the lists have made their way to various websites I have developed. Others have become complete works of art that start from ceiling and hang down to the floor, large crayon-drawn words, prose-art-poetic attempts to scrawl back into the mind of the immediate child within us all.
