    Provenance / HistoryThis work was done in 2005 shortly after the artist returned from New Orleans where he worked in the Lower 9th Ward helping the citizens to restore what housing was left after the levies broke and the flood waters poured in. The area is considered a bayou, watery and marsh like. This painting is based on an imaginary restoration of the flora and fauna as well as the houses in the ward. It is truly one of the few available of my purely, large abstract expressionist paintings. The painting has been widely shown including being a part of the Clyfford Still Museum opening in the Havu Gallery, Denver, Colorado. 
    Story / Additional InfoI was sitting with a man who saw family members washed away in the Katrina storm surge. He showed me photos taken from the rooftop of his brick house(one of the very few in the area) of a wall of water coming...I was so emotionally moved by the whole experience that my art reacted directly to the experience.....real down and dirty abstract expressionism.....a basically calm dispassionate image... however, the underpainting is violently expressive.
