New Work

The Weavers (1), 2014
ink, paraffin on paper
25 1/2" x 23"


























Here is one of my newest works, one of The Weavers series. It is included in my show at Stone Rose Gallery, in Long Beach, until September 27th.

Weaving is symbolic of many things, including creativity, the act of living, the interconnectedness of all things in the universe.

Hello Again!




It's been awhile.

But life is good, art is good, and I hope those of you who are nearby will stop by the opening of my show next Saturday, August 30th, at Stone Rose, the hot new gallery in Long Beach.

  It would be great to see you!

Love, Found.


   A small box from the swap,
   Decorated by hand.
   Love declared.



   "To Reanne," it said. 
   "Angel."
   "I love u."
   "Love, Mark."















On the bottom, recorded in pencil:
"Made with Love after six months.
November 30, 2000 to May 30, 2001."

This is all we know.
