Figurative

Figurative work offers its own world of possibilities, from insights into the subject, to interesting visual dialogs with the viewer. Sometimes it is just something that you just like to view. I don’t frequently engage in figurative work let alone portraiture, but when I do, I find it both challenging and rewarding.

Black Dog (2021)

In many cultures, a black dog is a metaphor for depression or lack of will. Putting sunglasses on the dog adds an element of whimsy, rejecting or minimizing that notion.
