Chimera Update:  New Paintings The Chimera exhibition features several new paintings, including the triptych “Fall, Paradise Is For Those Who Do What They Are Told”, a work composed of three 8 foot by 4 foot oil on wood panels.

An Explanation on the Design of the Lovers Major Arcana Tarot Card

Lovers from Tarot of the Morning Star Inspiration for my depiction of the Lovers tarot card came in part from Paolo Uccello’s  painting of Saint George and the Dragon.
