What If Truth Is Rejected Even When It Is Lived Well
It’s easy to assume that if something is true, and if it is communicated clearly, reasonably, and with goodwill, it will eventually be accepted. This assumption sits quietly beneath a lot of effort, especially in faith. We speak carefully. We try to be fair. We explain ourselves patiently. Somewhere beneath all of that is the hope that clarity and sincerity will be enough. But what if that hope misunderstands how truth actually moves through the world.

Watching The End Of The World From The Diner. Top Story - June 2023.

A compelling example of this trend can be imagined through a song titled “Bonnie’s Bar.”

Memory as Fragmented Body
I return, again, to Anonymous—an artist I have followed for some time, and one I continue to regard as a rare source of fresh air within the visual language of the 21st century. There is a persistence in this practice, a refusal to resolve too quickly, that feels increasingly vital.

The Woman He Played
I painted this piece from a place of deep thought about relationships and control. At first, it looks like a man playing a guitar, with three women standing behind him. But to me, the guitar is not just an instrument — it represents a woman. The way he holds it, the way he plays it… it feels more personal than just music.

The Myth Reassembled Through Abstraction
Few titles carry the historical weight of Adam and Eve. For centuries the subject has been approached through figuration—two bodies, a tree, a serpent, a garden. The narrative is visually familiar long before the painting begins.
