This painting is the most figurative of my recent works. It is fuelled by my being more open and explicit about my past and its legacy. I still wish to leave the viewer with ‘room’ for alternate interpretations.

“Justice System”
What’s a topic or issue about which you’ve changed your mind?
There are a number of topics that I’ve changed my mind about. But, the most significant and important for me is the criminal justice system.
As a teenager, I believed and had faith in the police, the law courts, the powers to be…the whole judiciary system.
I no longer feel that way. The criminal justice system is ineffective; the practice, operation, and procedures are defective in delivering justice to the victims of serious crime.
I no longer have faith in it!
