A simple doodle drawing that has become a painting. This simple configuration popped into my head while reading/sketching. Like the Hopes & Dreams work, I wanted to make this image to remind myself of life. Those things in life that get used to make something special, but often as not, they get wasted by human error or other inefficiencies along the way.

Hopes & Dreams

Hopes & Dreams
A work on panel (plywood) + acrylic. An idea that came along while thinking about being fragile. Hopefully, this will be an allegory for all of us. Everyone must risk being known, being public, interviewing for jobs or meeting new people. To move forward in life there is a fight that must happen.

I thought about having ideas and thoughts about one's future. Along the way there are successes and most likely many more failures. This is not necessarily about boxing, but about thoughts/ideas and effort/sweat going towards a better future — or a future that is being wrought out of life with many challenges along the way.

This image became an essential one for me as I think about my station in life and what will be next. I have hopes and dreams, and I know the long shot that it will be if they come to pass. The “long shot” idea led me to the boxer. Brains or brawn, which will it be? Thinking about working as a creative and putting ideas out there for all to see. Currently at Exhale Unlimited Gallery, Chinatown, Los Angeles.

here is the finished (so far) version of what I am calling “ExEden”
