Jungle Series

Jungle

What lies behind those leaves? What lies on the path not traveled? How many living things are watching? The wonder of the jungle is ever dense, engulfing, intriguing, and mystifying. All living things battle for a spot of light, for a drop of water, for any nutrient affordable, awarded to the ones who manage to make their way past the world of hurdles they inhabit. Such difficult problems require creative solutions, which make beautiful results. The depth and diversity of this environment is the inspiration for this collection of paintings reflectively called JUNGLE.

Werner Herzog once said “… I don’t think birds sing, they screech in pain…”. Which is a response in an emotional state a person can certainly arrive to while trying to make their way through the jungle. But here, the birds sing in harmony with endless tunes, sending us messages through the music of their song.
