I’m continually fascinated with hives of enthusiasm such as bird watching groups, knitting circles, amateur chamber music ensembles, and vintage bicycle restoration communities. This fascination has stretched into the invention of my own fictitious associations such as the Maldives Manta Society and Santorini Swim Club which are dedicated to the pleasures of swimming with oceanic megafauna as well as the preservation of such species.

Antoine Saint Exupery, the well known author of Le Petit Prince was also a pilot for l’Aeropostale, France’s airborne postal service from the late 1920s/early 1930s. He and his fellow pilots delivered the mail in dangerous flying conditions, often at night, through sandstorms over the Sahara Desert and thunderstorms over the Atlantic. He disappeared in late WWII while flying reconnaissance missions for the allies.
Earnest Gann chronicled the lives and deaths of these special pilots in his memoire, Fate is the Hunter which is where I get the title for this painting.

In 2022, my daughter Georgia challenged me to make a painting about tigers as it was Year of Tiger. I had to think about it for a while and in December, 2022 as the Julian calendar year was coming to a close, Georgia politely let me know I was running out of time. What she didn’t realize was that the year of the Tiger from the Lunar Calendar bought me another month. I pretty much made the deadline and the result was this painting, Yellow Tiger Swallow Tail. In it, Falconry-tiger jockeys compete for the Stromboli Cup just off the shores of the eponymous volcanic island which is part of the Aeolian Archipelago in the South Mediterranean Sea.

In the late Summer/Autumn of 2022, we were treated to the cosmic beauty of Mars and Jupiter in opposition to the Sun. Both planets’ close orbit to Earth combined with their aspect to the Sun allowed us to see these planets more closely and brightly than we have for centuries. It was possible to see 4 of Jupiter’s moons with only binoculars. At that same time I was working on this painting and I saw this astral arrangement as a metaphor for the mythology within my composition; The push and pull of tidal orbits and gravity as timeless feud between bootlegging moonshiners.

The sole survivor of a species of trees that dates back to the time of the dinosaurs, Ginkgo biloba is a living bridge between ferns and conifers. Tall, sturdy and incredibly long-lived (some as long as 1,000 years) the Ginkgo sheds spectacular, jewel-like golden leaves. Extracts of the leaves are used to enhance memory.
Harvested leaves were embellished with paint, then scanned, scaled, printed and cut out. Individual leaves were arranged in a lotus pattern – a nod to the Buddhist tradition of venerating this “prehistoric” tree.
