Noir Paintings

These paintings represent my love for the Noir films of the 40's and 50's and how these ideas have influence my work.

NOIR PAINTINGS

This bike rider seems to be lost. He is not sure of his direction, It seems to me a lot of us have that same problem in this day and age.

To begin the day with such a positive attitude you must have a strong belief in your ability to survive.

A quiet laborer is cleaning a corporate area.This is hard grueling work on a minimum wage. It's not fair!
​This painting was done in the noir style to emphasize the starkness of the situation.

There's nothing to compare to the richness of a grand piano's sound after a performance ,or during a late night practice.

Something about this woman intrigued me. I thought she was especially attractive. I knew she was listening to the music with particular sensitivity, and she seemed so sad and forlorn I couldn't help feeling she needed a friend.

I can remember as a young man being invited to the neighborhood bar especially in the summertime to knock back a few in celebration of almost anything. These parties would last until all hours.
This painting is not really a "noir painting", but because of its subject matter, it fits the spirit of"noir" --meaning it has a lot of the gritty reality of that period.
