a bevy of recent work

Some examples of work completed in the last few months. I've posted them all separately before. I've joined them all here together for anyone to peruse through at once. My memory may be faulty on some sizes. Titles are provisional. I selected the opening word "Delusional" based on my love of John Berryman's poems, in particular this Dream Songs. His last collection before his death referenced Delusions in its title. At 53 I consider my life is shaped by my fantasies and delusions in a perhaps predictable way. 30 years ago I was immersed in finishing up my BFA in preparation for my MFA. I knew everything and was a master of time and space. I've managed to keep drawing and painting all these years since; enduring some rough patches, some cul de sacs, but these last several years have been a true blessing. I look forward to 30 or more years drawing and painting - greedy for time.
