Ghosts of Our Passed

​The inspiration behind 'Ghosts of our Passed' comes from the venue where I have my annual exhibition for  the Florida Day of the Dead celebration. It takes place in a historic Inn (New River Inn) right on the river in historic Fort Lauderdale.  Every year when I arrive there in October,  I feel this knowing presence of the place, like it's welcoming me back home  and I'm right where I need to be. Some say it's haunted. I wouldn't be surprised! I wanted to paint this area right outside the Inn with those who have been before us, in a different time who've come to join us today and celebrate life. When this painting was exhibited the first time, hanging in the front side room, I enjoyed pointing out with others at this painting, "this is right here, right now; and look! That's me and this could be you!" This was received by art goers with unsuspected recognition and definitely a laugh. It made a great conversation piece for sure! The correct name for this special place is now called the Fort Lauderdale Historical Society.  I have again the honor and privilege to exhibit my work here in a solo show for this year's 2021 Florida Day of the Dead Celebration! This painting along with many others will be featured. See you Nov 2nd!
