A loaf of sliced bread on a cutting board sits in front of an open window. Outside, amongst a backyard of greenery, stands a man in a bowler hat. He is also sliced. Nothing sinister is meant with this painting. I wondered if I could pull off painting a loaf of sliced bread. That got me to thinking about if I could paint a person as if he or she were similarly sliced. Who better to get the treatment than the man in the bowler hat as part of my on-going homage to Magritte? The problem I faced was to figure out where such a setting would take place.

I consider myself to be a modern day surrealist, heavily influenced by my all-time favorite artist, Rene Magritte. I paint ideas. My goal is to paint the impossible, or at least, the highly improbable. With my paintings, you can always tell what's going on, you just don't necessarily know why. I want my paintings to tell stories that make you think. And if I can bring a smile to your face, that's even better. Enjoy! And please consider buying an item or two - they make excellent conversation starters!
