Garak
7 x 8 In, Charcoal Pencil on Art Again Paper,
2001. A Portrait from the Working Men series. $190.
"Garak" (played by Andrew Robinson) is a
character from the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine television series. I liked
him because he was complex: intelligent, witty, caustic, and
self-deprecating. Character copyright belongs to Paramount Pictures. |
A Good Day for Sailing
7.25 x 14.5 In, Pastel, 2001. A Portrait from the
Working Men series. $160.
A captain squints into the early morning sun,
measuring the sea swells and evaluating the weather. The cool breeze is
stiff, but the snuggly warm sweater his wife knitted for him keeps the
chill away. He takes a last look and calls to his crew: "All
aboard!"

Bogie
10.75 x 15 In, Pastel, 2000. A Portrait from the
Working Men series. Not for Sale.
This is a reproduction of a photo on the back
of "The Casablanca Cookbook." It shows hard-boiled Humphrey
Bogart in one of his most endearing poses. I love him in this moody
black-and-white image, with his stance so guarded and his hat pulled
down, but his eyes peering out of the gloominess with faint hope. |

Ioan
11 x 16 In, Pastel, 2000. A Portrait from the
Working Men series. $260.
The scruffy gentleman stares at the viewer with
an unusual expression on his face. Is he annoyed? Or about to burst into
laughter?

Medicine Man
8.75 x 5.75 In, Graphite on Parchment, 2000. A
Portrait from the Working Men series. $95.
An old medicine man squints in the harsh
sunlight of the desert. He has long since accepted his home's dry air
and wild temperature swings. The heat relaxes his arthritic joints, and
the nighttime coolness lets him sleep.
