Politicos!

The New Holofernes 11x14 inches, Mixed on Paper
Recently, I made several paintings with overt political content  combined with an element of portraiture.  The New Holofernes shows an update on the nefarious feme fatale, this time though, it's the severed head of Henry Kissinger on display.  It's been suggested that the old butcher himself has been behind the Administration's policy on Iraq. 
Napoleon Contemplating the Bust of tthe Lone Ranger 11x14 inches, Mixed on Paper
Napoleon, the proto-typical military aristocrat.  A model for all to come after him and the smithy of the modern war forge.
V. Lenin 8x8 inches, Mixed on Paper
V. Lenin, the schemer revolutionary. 

Each in their own way influenced the politcal climate that we all share.
