I meant paintings also from the late 1970’s.

He was, as many of his MassArt contemporaries would agree, a man with a plan. Great to see your successes over the decades, John. Didn’t you also exhibit at the Clark Gallery in Lincoln (Massachusetts)? My best to you and yours – Marie Rock

There is a power of tension within that creates life. They are majestic and rich and transcendent. He’s been true to himself but growing all these years. Amazing work!
