PAINTINGS

"The Chess Game"

"The Love Game is a Chess Game - A Tribute to Auguste Rodin"

2003, oil on canvas, 30"x40"
(private collection)

"If I do it, she may change her mind... or maybe not. Should I try something else?... But then, she'll do this... or that... or... who knows?... Certainly I don't... I think I'm trapped... with no choice but surrender... Yeah, this is probably what it is... I love her."

"The Eternity of Beauty"

2002, oil on canvas, 24"x30"
(private collection)

"I'm holding a shell to my ear,

And I can hear the sea.

It's gotta be beautiful in there,

How can I see?..."

"We live in an ephemeral world where only a few things last forever (beside the diamonds in the commercial, of course). Beauty is one of them, it is eternal. Even the unstoppable time is powerless, can touch the beauty but can't alter it. How beautiful is beauty, isn't it?"

"Solitude"

2002, oil on canvas, 20"x16"
(private collection)

"There is sadness in solitude, and it is so ubiquitous... Too many lone souls are being ignored in both real and surreal worlds... The sea of people surrounding them is just salt water for the thirsty castaways... And that's not much we can do about it."
