"As I See It: Michelle"

"Michelle" is an original, mixed media on board. 40" x 60". This work is part of a series I'm calling "As I See It: A Re-envisioning of Masterworks." This piece is a tribute to Andy Warhol's "Marilyn". Of course, my muse is Michelle Obama. Her earring is a design I've created for jewelry. It reads "Black Lives Matter."

The seriers will end up being a celebration of my 60 years of growth as a professional artist and will include  twelve (12) large scale works of art that includes tributes to Michelangelo’s ‘Pieta’, Warhol’s ‘Marilyn’, Vermeer’s ‘Pearl Earring’, Munch’s “The Scream”, and Picasso’s ‘Woman in the Mirror’, among others.  Each of the pieces is visually compelling because I do use people of color, but each also contains a social message that is sometimes obvious, sometimes not.  

Each original in the series is $80,000 USD.
