Three Acts Triptych; The Comedians


We think by feeling, what is there to know? Everything tells a story, even if the story cannot be told in words. We can not completely understand each other, communication is more with ourselves than with those around us. But if out of the prisonhouse of interiority, a painting occasions a ray of light, then it’s successful.

I’m a painter, I live in Minneapolis. My works are in collections in the US, Europe and Asia, including the De Young Museum in San Francisco and the Weismann here.
