A Survey of My Development as an Artist, Part 2 (Jataka Tales and the Academy)

Very impressive to enter your Art it is a world of internal space, your thoughts, your mood that you recreated in those paintings. Love the studies of various combination of human and birds. If you allow me to comment young men on your paintings look to have or express no emotions except “Death of a Budgie-Sattva”, was it your intention? I really enjoyed your works, fascinating and nice to see such works in modern Art :)

Very good observation. Yes the stoic nature of a lot of my young men is purposeful. This repose is related to the discipline of being centered--a kind of Buddhist detachment of the seeker as he exists through a variety of circumstance and embodiment. Ultimately, as a Bodhisattva, it is assumed he, too, will obtain enlightenment--and so in a sense an inner core of the figure is foreshadowing its connection to that stillness even while engaging the ephemera of each situation/incarnation.
