Saturday is For Art



These two paintings were exhibited in 1992. Even back then, Energy Policy and Housing or more accurately the Savings & Loan crisis were topics of discussion. Here we are in 2009, and Energy Policy and Housing or the financing of housing is very much in the news. Perhaps, this is the administration, the Obama Administration, that will tackle these very important issues that affect our economy and our standard of living. The works were done on paper in oil paint. Naturally, the paper was first primed with gesso front and back. As a some time collector of American postage stamps, I like creating commemorative stamps that our Post Office would never consider. In 2009, I hope to return to creating a few new commemorative stamp issues.
