Based on a view from flying in an airplane high above earth, this painting shows the shifting shapes below.
The New York City Chair
The 60×44″ oil painting was created after 9/11 in 2002. The poem on the bottom written in gold: “No one had a better mentor, in shock of smoke, in tragedy or attack. To be taught, to take the lesson, when towers cracked, just there, in view. To take you chair, as model, your method, mine. To stare forward, arms still at your sides for hours”-NMH
This painting seems even more relevant to me now with the Federal Government being dismantled by the current administration. Perhaps a strategy going forward is to remember the strength of all the people coming together, this time to save our Democracy…
Included in the MOS show at the Marin Community Foundation until May 23. Brought forward from my own personal collection. The image of the painting is also featured in the book, “The Chairs”, poems by N.M. Hoffman in collaboration with my series of chair drawings and paintings.

Soar
“The courage it takes to leave behind what’s not for you anymore is the same courage that will help you find your way to what is.”
This piece color shifts and beautifully changes according to ambient and direct light. She’s a very special one, just like those that inspired this piece.

“No one worth knowing has had an easy past…. There’s this thing that people who have spent time in the gutter, instinctively comprehend. This thing the timid or fortunate will never understand. You can see it in their eyes…you can hear it in their music, you can feel it in the way they shake your hand…or the words that they use as they try to describe something to you… They no longer take the good for granted…and when trouble finds them, they go down swinging. They know the bad times won’t last…nor will the good times. Time is manmade…nobody really knows what time it is right now….and you’re on your own schedule, not someone else’s. The strongest people out there are not those who show strength in front of us…but those who fight and conquer/lose battles we know nothing about. In the quiet… In the silence. Please be good to one another.”

“The universe always replaces what exits your life with something bigger and better. Don’t be stuck holding onto the past or resisting change. Welcome new energy. Let go of what needs to be removed. There’s great blessings in surrendering and allowing.”
