Personal Works 2012 to Present

Five figures gathered around a large roud, wooden table. Each has a book with one of the following written on it - Chance, Misfortune, Mischief, Escapism and Curiosity. They are mostly drinking from teacups. The event seems casual and relaxed. Four people standing around a stone well. One is an elderly Causasian woman holding a photograph in one hand and a gold coin in another. Another is a Black woman who has just released a gold coin from her fingers to drop into the well. The third is a man with red hair who is seated at the base of the well, looking up into the sky above. The fourth is a man from Southern Asia who holds a gold coin in his palm and is staring at the well. Three figures sitting on a sidewalk near a lamppost, each holding an unopened can of beer and holding a playing card, looking unfocused into the distance as though remembering a fourth person who is not present. Oil painting of a desk, chair and telescope in the foreground. On the chair are books with titles Human Physiology, Genetics, and Evolutionary Biology, with a large globe of the Earth weighing down on top of them.To either side of the desk are cabinets with models of satellites and Mars rovers along with books on physics and mathematics. A dirt path winding out from a shadowy forest in the foreground, into the sunlight and over hills in the distance, forests on either side. Two grandfather clocks sit on the path, one with no hands labeled Past and one further along the path labeled Present. Man sitting alone on a rock with a book open across his lap and wearing a thoughtful expression. Across the ground are other books, each closed and secured with a pad lock to prevent openeing them. Brass key siting in a glass jar on top of a stack of thick books. Five people standing on a sidewalk. Two characters are holding umbrellas, one wearing a smiling mask and the other a sad one, standing on opposite ends of the composition. The other three characters are looking up as though confused why these two are using umbrellas on a clear day. Three blocks of wood stacked on each other with a lot of nails halfway hammered into them and twisted, with various sharp,pronged and barbed elements hanging from strings. Woman seated on the floor with open book in lap, staring down at a caterpillar crawling on her bare foot, just calmly studying it. There is also a microscope next to her and a stack of books with a glass jar and a single metal key in the jar. A clergyman of some rank based on the formal attire he is wearing, sitting across from an alien being at a small round table. They are drinking tea and appear to be having a friendly discussion. The clergyman has a book on his lap with the title Morality while the alien has a book titled Empiricism. The alien's attire appears to resemble that of a priest. Strange rectangular wooden building with a large oval window on the upper floor. It is set atop a mountain range.
