Santa Knows for 2011. He passed on 5 October that year. Within minutes of hearing the news, I began hearing from folks: (a) SJ just passed and (b) he's your Santa Knows this year! Steve Jobs has always been one of my heros, and even though I made the dang thing, this painting still gives me chills when I look into the eyes.

From the Santa Knows series, Surreal Santa is a tribute to the marvelous Belgian surrealist Rene Magritte. Son of Man was actually a self portrait, and one of several paintings Magritte used the green apple .... here to represent stacked layers of reality. Paul McCartney was a big Magritte fan. The artist's green apple inspired the name Apple Records, and subsequently Steve Jobs' Apple Computers. Although I can't complain about being a portrait painter, in my fantasy life, I'm a surrealist!

Here is Weeping Sunflowers. This piece is the third in the Stripes series (“Russian Warship” and “I Need Ammunition, Not a Ride” are the first and second). This painting is my prayer for Ukraine, and unsurprisingly, the overarching metaphor is salvation.
Like Gauguin’s “Vision After the Sermon”, the picture is divided into two sections — the lower represents the material world, and upper is the realm of the divine. In Weeping Sunflowers the background has yellow and blue stripes, bounded by red, suggesting a flag. The darkened, blood spattered lower area has two crouching flowers … weeping tears of blood … and also bowed in prayer. The bottom flower has two very droopy leaves, suggesting the end is near. The vase looks like an urn, earthy and blood-soaked. The lilies, signifying rebirth and regeneration, kind of glow, and illuminate the upper portion of the composition. The central, heavenward facing sunflower is renewed by the light …. its leaning stem has taken a turn upward. The frame, integrated into the composition represents fire. I’ve included my usual Biblical numerology — twelve stripes, seven lilies (two on the cusp of opening), and three sunflowers.
