A couple of paintings about sleep

Sleep 1, 36" by 18", oil on canvas, 2014

Sleep 2, 36" by 24", oil on canvas, 2014

Sleep
Sweet rest
When my eyes stop burning
Loins cool
Stomach settles

The hope of what tomorrow brings
Leaving today behind
And now
I embrace the oblivion space

Staring Up At the Ceiling

Staring Up At the Ceiling, 18" by 36", oil on canvas, 2014

Why do we die?
Do something but you're guided by nothing.
Lost, fragmented, don't believe in anything.
Nothing is true.
What's important?
Throw-away images? Made permanent.
Taboos being challenged.
"Numb thyself."
