Work in progress. Gilded "dual portraits". I combine 17th & 18th century oil portraits of men and women all under the ghost of a moth or butterfly. Then add gold gilt. This one has it's own windowshade. #metamorphosis #art

More of the new work. There is still a ways-to-go! But, I am liking it. 😀❤️

From a series I did with beautiful illustrated images of Grecian urns festooned with French plaster intaglios. Framed in white shadow boxes. 😀

Ready for the next storm! I mean snow storm—not political storm! That particular phenomenon is currently well covered. 🤬😀❤️🎱

Windy day at the beach with Satchi. It’s a gift to be near the water! 😀❤️

Gotta love that Pope! Pius XII might have been silent throughout the Holocaust—but not Francis!! His letter to all Bishops in the U.S. is a 10 point instructional on challenging and resisting Trump. I imagine it will be read from every pulpit tomorrow. 👏👏👏❤️🇺🇸🔥

New digs in Madison CT. One helluva view! A bit of an idyll from a too harsh world. Sorta.
