Artists Registry

AFTER THIS WAS PAINTED, I WISHED TO SEND A PRINT TO FAMILIES OF ALL THE FIRE, EMS, POLICE AND OTHER RESCUE PERSONS WHO LOST THEIR LIVES THAT DAY AND THE DAYS THEREAFTER.

This poster was an inspiration to make. The spot lights shining up to the sky have all of the names of the people that perished in the World Trade Center faded into those spot lights.

I feel this is the strongest thing I have written about what happened on September 11, 2001. I donate this poem for all to remember on that day.

On the day that the first Tower was hit by the terrorist's plane I had
put on the
television and thought I was watching a movie.Then Katie Couric started

The Button Project, a 9/11 Memorial

A community art work
Using thousands of donated buttons
To represent lives lost

My art is an ever-developing autobiography. The complete story of my life is a script to be molded, sculpted, painted, drawn and hammered into.

Living a mile and a half north of Ground Zero I experienced the impact of the event. I was able to enter Ground Zero on 9/12, which I wrote a personal account and article about.

I have to admit, I am a product of the urban environment.

Currently, I have one piece for the registry, but plan to work on portraits of those I know, personally, who either suffered the loss of a loved one, or struggled emotionally after surviving the events of that day.

“And I'll dance with you in Vienna,
I'll be wearing a river's disguise.
The hyacinth wild on my shoulder
my mouth on the dew of your thighs.
And I'll bury my soul in a scrapbook,

I had a lucid dream at 3am on 9/11/2011... The image I saw was the now completed work 9/11...

I immediately arose and scetched the image and then started painting it... 3 days later it was finished.
