WILLIAMSTOWN, NJ 1950-1960
My mother and brother; the painting captures her characteristic tension despite the serene pose.
My brother and I obediently ignoring whatever drama is going on in the background.
My Russian step-grandfather standing behind a rose bush, God knows why.
My mother and aunt flanking their soon-to-be sister-in-law. Positively prescient.
SCENES FROM CHINA 2005-2007
Heading home after a visit to Tiananmen Square.
From a photo I took when I was somewhere I wasn’t supposed to be. Part of a project of painting people from the back.
I followed these monks through an art market in Xi’an one ghostly gray early morning.
Coming down Yellow Mountain in heavy fog.
A Temple in Xi’an.
OTHER PEOPLE
Somewhere in Italy. My friend Dea is playing it nonchalant, as usual.
My grandmother from Riga and her dog Shep in her Pennsylvania backyard.
