I want To Break Free
Keep Yourself Alive
Oil on Canvas 18 x 24 inches February 8 2018
I spent most of February 2018 listening to Queen and trying to paint "Fightclouds", That's what cartoon people call these complex combinations of motion and body fragments. They're very self-referential.....Id versus Ego, straight versus gay......etc and they are at the core of the relationship between Bluto and Popeye. They are often fighting, ostensibly over Olive Oyl but she usually disappears as soon as the fighting begins and it goes on and on getting more ridiculous and entertaining....... it's just a way for these 2 guys to be together.

Livin' Large
O/C 4 x 3 feet
I started this in early October after I had installed all the Bluto paintings in an annex to my studio that I could barely afford and I finished it on my birthday October 9
Rings
So much effort was put into these fight scenes...Popeye seems to be standing on Bluto's thighs here and what are those rings hiding??
