This painting is part of a series of oil paintings in dressers. They refer to an emotion that arises when, just beyond the edge of awareness, a thought emerges—one we feel an urgent need to suppress.

‘The Wedding Rings’ is part of the series ‘Dressed in Secrets’ – oil paintings made in dressers. They refer to an emotion that arises when, just beyond the edge of awareness, a thought emerges—one we feel an urgent need to suppress.

‘Dressed in Secrets’ is a series of oil paintings in orphaned dressers. I find them at the trash in the streets. The cabinets usually are broken, but the drawers make a great canvas. I paint people you’d preferred not to meet in them.

‘Halfway’ is a memory of how I experienced the ways of my father in the ’70s and  ’80s.
