Hello friends,
If you’re looking for a holiday gift, for the first time, I’m offering a limited edition print of my portrait of rock legends John Lennon and Yoko Ono. It’s an illustration that I’m particularly proud of and was used to promote 1985 NBC movie, John and Yoko: A Love Story. As a longtime Beatles fan myself, Lennon’s tragic and senseless death really hit home. I’d like to think the music he created will remain relevant for generations to come. And in my hubris, I’d like to think this dual portrait captures that sentiment.
Printed 21” x 16” heavyweight lithograph paper, I’ve got only 100 copies available for purchase. They’re 20 percent off the list price, and there’s no charge for shipping or handling. I signed them, too. If you’re interested, the link to buy is here: /products/john-and-yoko-print
A very happy holidays to you and yours.
Order by December 26th for guaranteed Christmas delivery.

The anticpation of a year has collapsed into the shortness of a week . As the "Days Grow Shorter from May to December" a song from a musical whose name I can't remember, the opportunity to see some of my things from the last two decades are now getting fewer. The club hrs are from 1 to 6 PM ( Check Sunday on their web page) so give a look.
Late getting here, but this is my first New York exhibition since 2006 and represents selected examples from the 2 decades of this new century. To all friends and colleagues whom I failed to notify before this, please excuse the fragmented memory of a 95-year-old fool.
This painting of mine was sort of "discovered" when the current owner posted it here a year or so ago. I copied the painting but somehow the information got trashed. It's a very blurry photo and I'd love to hear back from the owner ( also lost in my bad record-keeping skills) to see if I can get a good photo and of course the owner's name for updated records. Anyone out there??
An old painting of mine has seen a second life in the June issue on Fine Art Connoisseur magazine in a feature piece on "Couples." It's from 2003 and titled" Park Bench The image here is cropped to a detail.
A recent commission was of my youthful idol, Bill Bradley because he starred on the New York Knicks only 2 championships ('69, '71) in the last 50 years.—a record of some sorts I'm sure. Delighted to paint him I decided to focus on his own youthful smile as a way to honor those years. He became a US Senator and ran abortively for the presidency as a Democrat in 2000. The image is cropped; 28x21 inches
I finished three portrait commissions last year. This is one of them—Judge Joan Ericksen— that I feel quite successfully incorporates an environment and a sense of the presence of a warm human being who also happens to be a distinguished jurist. Oil on Linen 44x42 inches.
