One of my larger Monkey Love paintings"Snake Tamer's Ditty"
will be headed to Seattle this week to the home of a collector of mine.
I will be sad to see it go.
This painting was shown earlier at Ad Hoc Gallery in Brooklyn, NY
and at The Shore Institute of Contemporary Art in NJ.
It was also featured on boingboing .
I painted my first monkey with a sailor hat in 2002.
That painting had a little girl in it.
It was printed in the award book "American Illustration".

In 2005 & 2006, I did a series of monkey love
paintings for Blab! art shows in L.A. (Copronason).They were
also shown at Applegate Gallery (Santa Monica)
and Roq La Rue(Seattle) and M Modern (Palm Springs) galleries.
Most of the monkey paintings sold quickly. Many right off my easel.
One became a framed print available through Pressure Printing.
I made others into giclees available on my website.
There were also some works
with monkeys in my solo show at Thinkspace Gallery in L.A. (2009)-
including some antique ukuleles.
