My Blog features my Digital Drawings and Paintings. I love anthropomorphous mythical beasts - animals and birds - buildings - wheeled vehicles - trains and boats - oceans - suns - stars and moons - flowers - gardens - landscapes as they exist in mystery - memory and the imagination.

White Elephant On Wheels: March 2015
http://whiteelephantonwheels.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Multi-tasking in a wiggly art world. Monday, March 16, 2015. Yevgeniya Baras: Of Things Soothsaid and Spoken. Steven Harvey Fine ArtProjects. Is a young artist with an old soul. Perhaps the immigrant experience informs her persona, arcing generations of Russian Jews relocating to the Promised Land of the New York art world. Baras’ vernacular vocabulary effectively informs her content; folksy references to rustic emblems enable the casual offhandedness seen in her impastoed frames. The artist...Yet the...

White Elephant On Wheels: November 2013
http://whiteelephantonwheels.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Multi-tasking in a wiggly art world. Saturday, November 9, 2013. John Lees, John Davis Gallery. First off, kudos to John Davis Gallery. This was our first visit and I hope there are many more. His visionary exhibition venue starts out conventionally enough. The upstairs/downstairs primary gallery spaces of the old town house are pleasantly illuminated and neatly organized. This was also my introduction to John Lees’s painting on view in the street front town house. Although there are many nuanc...I don&#...

White Elephant On Wheels: Arnold Mesches-Eternal Return
http://whiteelephantonwheels.blogspot.com/2014/06/arnold-mesches-eternal-return.html
Multi-tasking in a wiggly art world. Sunday, June 15, 2014. Mesches is a stud of a painter. 90 years young, he exudes a macho strut. This confluence of wisdom and pluck is reflected in the muscular, confrontational strata of his painterly architecture. In the tradition of socialist atheism, Mesches embraces a secular perspective. His paintings do not indulge in speculative metaphysics. They are festooned with feisty decorations that may not soothe the soul, but are soulful. Detail Coming Attractions 5.

White Elephant On Wheels: Todd Bienvenu; Borrowing Tomorrow’s Fun.
http://whiteelephantonwheels.blogspot.com/2014/09/todd-bienvenu-borrowing-tomorrows-fun.html
Multi-tasking in a wiggly art world. Monday, September 29, 2014. Todd Bienvenu; Borrowing Tomorrow’s Fun. I’d like to think Bushwick will end up spawning creative talent identified as part of a particular time and place. The Bushwick scene has been primarily a youth movement, which I see as vital to the continuity of contemporary visual art, and historically as a connection to previous art communities. I’d hope that Bienvenu’s. Talking About Abstract Painting. Bienvenu’s more ambitious, larger scal...

White Elephant On Wheels: April 2014
http://whiteelephantonwheels.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Multi-tasking in a wiggly art world. Wednesday, April 30, 2014. Vapors and Squalls, or Mediums. Keeping up with Paul D'Agostino. Is no easy task. Not only does he have a Ph.D. in Italian Literature, a mind attuned to the constructs of visual art’s dialogue with writing and philosophy, but he also sees a lot of exhibitions, has a well-versed eye, and makes unpredictably intriguing art. That lends credence to his intellectual prowess. Our official resident scholar of Bushwick. Vapors and Squalls, or Mediums.

White Elephant On Wheels: City, Country, City Paintings by Gandy Brodie.
http://whiteelephantonwheels.blogspot.com/2014/03/city-country-city-paintings-by-gandy.html
Multi-tasking in a wiggly art world. Tuesday, March 25, 2014. City, Country, City Paintings by Gandy Brodie. This latest compilation of works on canvas by Gandy Brodie is something of a mini survey that focuses on the artist’s relationship to his immediate environment. This is a relevant concept since Brodie was always tuned in to local nuance, whether it was a dead bird on a sidewalk of SoHo, or a fictional tree falling in the vegetive density of a forested picture plane. I recall watching him paint on ...
