"Paul Revere rides again in the year 2002' painting takes to task the recent corrupt US elections which gave temporary free-reign for the wealthiest 1% of the US populace base to subvert and manipulate the governmental process for personal and corporate gain. "

"His 'Uncle Sam' painting challenges the drift toward hierarchy and plutocracy in the US leadership and takes to task a society which increasingly resembles a corporate run machine then a safe haven for individualism and democratic principles." Steven Bayless 

The 'Paul Revere' painting is part II, March 2002, in a ongoing display of visual excerpts from 'Patriot Political and Democracy' 15 part, Protest Painting Series.

" What do you think an artist is ?

An imbecile who has only eyes, if he is a painter, or ears if he is a musician, or a lyre in every chamber of his heart if he is a poet, or even, if he is a boxer, just his muscles?

Far from it:

At the same time, he is also a political being, constantly aware of the heartbreaking, passionate, or delightful things that happen in the world, shaping himself completely in their image.

How could it be possible to feel no interest in other people, and with a cool indifference to detach yourself from the very life which they bring to you so abundantly?

No, painting is not done to decorate apartments.

It is an instrument of war. " PABLO PICASSO
