New Painting!

"The Birth of Mars" is the painting you see me working on in the photos here. It is a 60x20'' oil on canvas.

According to legend, Juno, the queen of the gods, gave birth to Mars after being touched by a magic plant. Mars was originally associated with vegetation and fertility. As the Romans became increasingly warlike, Mars gradually developed into a god of war, but he never lost his connection with agriculture and the plant world entirely. The Romans honored him with festivals in his month, March, when new growth begins in the fields. Here our "red planet" represents the god for whom he was named.

Preliminary talks regarding a collaborative show with Argentina’s foremost contemporary classical composer Guillermo Silveira are underway.

Titled “Aphrodite’s Labyrinth”, the show would feature a large body of my artwork projected onto acrylic panels. The show would be interactive and would feature the music of Guillermo Silveira. Check back for specific information and updates on the progress of this unique project.
