Ambitious Artist RAW

Ambitious Artist Raw
no reason
no logic
just physical and emotional

just barely holding on

my paintings were determined to have something to say

Portrait of an ambitious artist

Self-portrait

Over time I have changed
Through multiple starting points and many opportunities, I evolved

How did authority get inside of my head?
A mind forged by manacles

Leper Line 25th Parallel

It was so primitive

From the 1860s to 1950s

They were seemingly untreatable

They were feared 

There was panic

Colonies within a colony

A prison for the sick

Of appalling living conditions

Enforcing social isolation

GRIM and SHAME

1981 An Ambitious Artist

1981 An Ambitious Artist

Back in ‘81 

When 

Times were fun 

As a fine artist 

With ambition in mind 

I thought of life
