THE SOUTH FLORIDA SCHOOL™

This body of work represents my study into a unique balance of fantasy, science, and imagination. Over the last ten years, I have developed a theoretical planet, identical in size to Earth, but with it's own land masses and oceans. The painting is not merely a depiction, but an expression of a unique atmosphere and unusual possibilities where the viewer, like the artist, is a pioneer.
