Yankee Doodle Dandy

I painted this painting "Yankee Doodle Dandy" in the early 1990's but it seems even more appropriate today. I sold it to an old friend this past summer.  I painted the stripes with a pallet knife like wiping off a bloody knife in a bed sheet. The stars are puffs of smoke, like an overhead view of a carpet bombing campaign. Prepare for doom.

  1. I put this painting and two others in a Chocolate and Art show a few years ago and they were so nonplussed that the hung the paintings way up on the wall in a back corner and didn't invite me back for a couple years.
