"With me, it's much more a matter of just accepting whatever happens, accepting all these elements from the outside and then trying to work with them in a sort of free collaboration. That's what makes painting an adventure, which is what it is for me."

This painting I did quite awhile back. It actually hung in the governors residence for awhile and I won an award with it.
It's called "Robs Birthday". This is my younger son when he was in high school. The billiard balls show his birthday with the eight ball and the blue two ball representing his birth-year of 1982...etc.etc.
Cool idea and very well executed.
