As I see it, there was a serendipitous string of events that the universe played to connect survivors and affirm life over destruction. My paintings reflect on personal lives in a manner that's not only tied to a tradition such as Expressionism or Tribal Art, but they find there a resonance and responsiveness that is spontaneous. In many of the works, a collage of the life of the painting and painterly ideas evolve in surprising ways, having worked over the paintings numerous times in response to the medium, other artworks, and life in general. Sometimes as in traditional Eastern painting, the first version of my artwork is expressive and lives on its own without prompting me to work with it some more. However, unlike Eastern painting, I don't throw out a work that doesn't work after the first encounter. I return to the medium, as another part of nature to respond to, just as I might respond to the life of a city or someone I know. In reflection on the history and resultant artwork, which reflects the central life affirming event, I wrote a poem that deepens the reflection and I hope the same for the viewer. This painting is best viewed with the print I made from a photo of this painting. I repeated the photo in columns and rows in a manner similar to some pop art, but then I superimposed the poem. I believe layers of different styles of older media act as a balance for newer media. The poem follows:
World War II Wedding
There was for her a church in Cirencester,
An edifice of subdued red,
A color best forgotten by the newlywed.
Juxtaposed in age with surrounds,
Is the sanguine sake of bonds without bounds.
There-then-before, a rough image it wore.
In need of solace, the damage was interlaced
With rough rose in hand and military dress which created
In animist hedge a cross for those no longer with us.
Blue shade was coursed through with white, free, pure, and capacious.
Silver sanctioned subtle charm of couple.
The marriage procession of progression
Springs from devastation.
A surgical patch was pasted here and there,
Over and under, and all around in each their layer.
Through strata vexatious, emerged the unpretentious,
Always discernible despite twists and turns,
Abrasions, shattered bones, and bomb inflicted burns.
Accepted strokes and slashes interweaved a fearless fractal.
They designed a map beyond decipher in accepted factual.
The record was fulfilled with marks, blurs, and disfigurement
It distilled quiescent dignity in callouses, ridges, and pits.
The perceptions of issue intertwined in discovered orbits.
They weaved parallactic views to reveal past source.
The portal was in a picture to which impotent war lost force.
With bold chiaroscuros, heart rending rose,
Salient ribbons, intersecting hedges,
And tremulous red of church pledges.
A simple wedding hence urged
To what beauty compelled beyond focus and the measured.
