Obsession


Is it possible to get too caught up in the stock market - to treat it as you would a table card game like poker? I'm afraid so. It can become an obsession - like a beautiful woman or like fine liquor. There is nothing wrong with becoming obsessed, just be careful what you become addicted to. There are always at least two roads to travel - choose wisely.

Violoncello

I am a fan of the artist Marc Chagall. He is dead now but that does not matter - his paintings live on. Mozart is dead too but his music is still here. So is Hemingway. And Leonardo Da Vinci. And Shakespeare. This painting was inspired by Celia Benfer Benfer - a lovely and very accomplished poet from Paraguay. She is gifted - born to write poetry. The painting is dedicated to Ms Benfer too. I tried to execute it in the style of Marc Chagall. Of course, the original is 300 times this size. Enjoy.

Andrew Wyeth is not dead


Another adulterated painting. Owning Christina. The colors are nice. This one was done a long time ago. The question of whether it is fair and legitimate to work on top of someone else's work comes up, naturally. Picasso said good artists copy and great artists steal. I think he was joking. I'm sure he was.
