My latest painting. A combination of welded steel, silkscreening, plaster, and pigment. 48" x 48" screwed to plywood. Much heavier than typical paintings. Needs to be professionally hung, or simply rested against the wall.
Yeah, it's a bit dry. The message. But truth is every bit equal to beauty. When it comes to art.
Who says truth is too abstract? Truth can, indeed must be, a living reality. A powerful hair-raising experience. If truth doesn't shake you out of your boots, it isn't deeply true. It's gotta leave you barefoot and trembling. It's much more than dead facts. Solid opinions. Or right ideas.
Truth is volcanic. It wipes off all trace of a smile on your face. Truth explodes with the complete range of human thoughts and emotions. And it's always new. Brilliantly, gloriously, new.
