Image 1: A triptych depicting the situation at the onset of the Iraqi war after the destruction of the World Trade Center. The main central image, The Birds, is about the American forces descending on the Iraqi people. The tall image to the left, U.S.Arab is a depiction of the aftermath when democracy and westernized culture take a hold on the same land. The top image is Terrorist Heaven. It is a play on the idea of receiving 70 virgins for their deeds. There is an angel holding off mothers and children with a firey hand because there is no room for women who have had children since they are not virgins. Also the "virgins" are American women, scantily clad or naked because the terrorists who blew up the towers were spotted the night before their actions hanging out in strip bars in Florida.
Image 2: A portrait of a clients five year old son surrounded by his current interests, Dinosaurs, Robots and the view of Manhattan from his home in Brooklyn.
Image 3: A garden scene commissioned by a gardener.
