| NUDE FIGURE GALLERY |
| The model's body is at least as individual as his or her face. I try to make a portrait of the body. |

|
| PORTRAIT GALLERY |
| The likeness is not in the exact shape and location of the individual features. People reveal their inner selves more typically in the set of the muscles of the neck, shoulders and face. |

|
| LANDSCAPE GALLERY |
| A landscape is like a map. You see how to get from one place to another. |

|
| INTERIORS GALLERY |
| Interiors are the most metaphoric genre. You look in to a room through the window of the frame and see someone's attempt to organize space. It's entirely syntactic: meaning is derived through placement. |

|
| SELF-PORTRAIT GALLERY |
| A good portrait should embarrass the sitter by revealing something they didn't know people could see in their faces. (That's why I don't like my self portraits.)

| PARIS SKETCHBOOK 1979 |
| This is a sketchbook on cheap paper from a trip to Paris in 1979. I went on the spur of the moment to visit a friend who was an artist who lived in Berlin. I had a Berlin sketchbook, too, but it was stolen in Paris. |
