Note: Most of the paintings are framed, some are not, but can be framed before arrival or purchased unframed for a DIY.
1. Yoko and John– I did a series called “tv portraits”, which i found to be a good way to get an original take on well-known artists-I would photograph them off a regular tv screen, while in motion. there are the lines of interlacing that are stop-motioned in the photos. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Television_lines then i would use the photo as a guide to paint the portrait and include the interlacing, which imo gave a new kind of impressionism. These have been in exhibits and always received strong reactions. In fact, my Dylan tv portrait was called “a strong work” by well-known painter Sam Barber. This picture is framed as it shows here, but the frame needs replacement, one corner is loose. mixed media on paper.
2. Hendrix of the tv portrait series, this is acrylic on canvas, unframed, 23 x 23 800 (he’s just slightly cock-eyed)

11. #4 Looking In – 22 x 18 acrylic on paper, from the shingled houses series. (note: i have been in the habit of strolling the neighborhoods at dusk, because it’s a time just before people pull the shades down, and close their doors before nightfall, especially ub the summer,the inside lights are often on, and it is always fascinating to glimpse and observe – slice of life-inspired painting)framed
