The Immigrant
A New painting to honor those who came to America in hopes of a better dream, hope for their families and the will to go on.
It’s as close as Self-Portrait I will ever get.
Painted also mainly to honor my grandmother Daisy who sent me into this country as well - as an immigrant.

Regina
della Morte
While the whole world is creating Ghibli “art”, real artists are creating, and embracing A.I rather than diminishing its potential.
Based on the Amazing “Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust” hit from 2001.
Regina della Morte, is a deadly start reminder that A.i is here to stay
and multi-disciplinary artists who embraced fine-arts as well as new technology and more importantly - Artificial Intelligence, will begin to put the ones who don’t embrace it, out of work.

The Man Who Laughs
Painted over a grueling 19-hour head-ache, intoxication, medicated and painful weekend.
”The Man Who Laughs” is the portrait of Madness.
I subjected myself to complete “nowhere and everywhere” state of mind as I painted this, completely in public using Procreate.
It’s one of the hardest and most difficult pieces I’ve accomplished artistically.
