CARNIVALS

CARNIVALS. These paintings  are inspired by, Coney Island, The Feast of San Genarro, The Circus, Street Carnivals, and other festive gatherings where such things exist. The images of Merry Go Rounds, Roller Coasters, Spooky rides, Tilt-a whirls, Bumping cars, reside in our mass subconsciousness.  Combined with hot dogs, French fries, cotton candy, ice cream,  ferris wheels, and gangsters, the carnival images are a surreal backdrop to Americana and the culture which it springs from.
