Alpine Evening

January 2009. 4' x 4.5'. Oil on Canvas. Property of Sara Pence.
Update in August 2009: 2 year old Solomon Garcia MacFarland, who currently holds the title of Most Important Person in the Eastern Sierra, has made yet more history in his short life by giving my artwork one of the most important critiques I have ever recieved. After being terrified of this painting, "Alpine Evening" for a good hour or so at a dinner party, Solomon overcame his initial (understandable) discomfort to consider it more closely. Finally, in his two year old voice, Solomon pointed at it and said, "it's not that bad." Children tend to know how to look at art better than most adults, so coming from Solomon, I have reason to believe that maybe my work really is "not that bad."

Man Saving Babies #1

October 2003- Oil on Canvas. 4' X 5' Property of Steve Tucker

This is the first panel of a triptych. The second panel was painted in 2005, and in it the figure was just watching the babies fall instead of trying to save them. This painting was suddenly ripped to pieces by the "artist" himself at an exhibition a few years ago. In the third panel, which has not yet been painted and possibly never will be, the figure is sitting on the ground with a bottle of wine while fallen babies pile up all around him.

The Naming of the Trask Sons

February 2004- Oil on Canvas. 4' X 5' Property of Jessica Riley

This is a representation of a scene from East of Eden, by John Steinbeck. I consider myself an Evangelical Steinbeckian and this a work in religious homage to his scriptures.
