Welcome!
I am Shawn and this is my gallery. I hope that you find something
here that delights you, makes you think, or maybe even disgusts
you (any reaction is better than none).
A lot of the images, drawings, etc. you will find here are
" Homoerotic "....That's a " no brainier " because
I am Gay and the images are an expression of my experiences.
Other images...mostly the oil paintings, are the result of
my having moved to the desert and in some ways I am inspired by
the spirit movement of Georgia O' Keefe. New Mexico has a powerful
effect on many artists and these paintings are my way of expressing
what I feel when I see the mountains or landscapes here.
As with all things, this site is a work in progress.... As
is my life and my art. I never know what I am going to do.......Until
it is almost done. My "husband" (biggest admirer and my
curator) says that my work morphs up until the minute I put down
the final brush stroke. He says he has seen me step back and look
at the piece and then say "this is what this is".
I started out doing primarily
pen and ink drawings that ver significantly homoerotic. Many
of these were based on real experiences.
However, since 2003 I have been very involved in painting ( much
to my manager/husband's chagrin. He feels my genius lies in
my pen and ink). In painting, I have been focusing mainly
on Sunflowers (which I love) and other flora. The other media
I have been experimenting with is photography. Many of my
best photos have not been included as my husband is still working
on concept desgin for my site.
So look around......and tell me what you think ....even if you hate
something, I would like to know. Disgust just might be the impression
I was hoping to bring out.
