About The Artwork
Barcelona is the home of Sagrada Familia, the largest unfinished Catholic Church in the world and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The original design was begun by architect Francisco Villar who then promptly resigned from the project almost as soon as it began. Antoni Gaudi then took over, made revisions, and began building Sagrada Familia in March of 1882. Construction continued and was funded entirely by private donations through 1936 when parts of the building was destroyed during the Spanish Civil War. Most of the blueprint plans were also destroyed so since 1940 numerous architects have been responsible for continuing the work. As a result, countless changes have been made as engineering advancements have enabled new designs to be possible. Currently the completion date is projected to be 2026. (But who knows?) The church has three main facades outside, the Nativity Facade, the Glory Facade, and the Passion Facade. Artist, sculptor, and designer Josep Maria Subirachs created the Passion Facade and included his version of the magic square as a tribute to Jesus Christ. I have hidden Subirachs' cypher within this artwork. I hope you like it.

After a 30 year career in advertising and sales leadership I escaped the corporate media world a few years ago and can now focus on creating my own work. In other words, I'm an outsider artist that has decades of ideas pouring out. My intent is primarily to create pieces of art that are highly visual and interesting to enjoy and study... but may often express ideas, ask questions, unearth feelings, debate opinions, or sometimes be provocative. Like many paintings though, they're often just a combination of lines, shapes, colors, textures, and space. That said; I hope my work presents a UNIQUE combination of art elements to you and that you like what you see. Better yet, I hope you believe some of my pieces should be included in your collection. I've traveled the world but have always lived in the Philadelphia area. While I have no formal training as an artist, I've been a photographer and I've been around the art community my whole life. My wife Suzanne works as a Docent for the Barnes Foundation in Philadelphia, and together we've raised three wonderful sons that are all now making their own way in the world. We have a home and our studio in Chester County PA with our Bernese Mountain Dog; Mr Charlie.
