John & Yoko Canvas Print
John and Yoko have elicited a wide spectrum of emotions, but to me, this image is undeniably uplifting. Yoko Ono has been scapegoated by some as the woman who broke up the Beatles. I disagree, and regardless of my love of the Beatles, I think Lennon did some of his most powerful and brave work as a solo artist with avant-garde artist Yoko Ono as his partner and collaborator. Yoko helped cultivate amazing things with John. The “Bed In” that the two held to discuss their peace advocacy and their WAR IS OVER (if you want it) campaign were courageous and ambitious. John and Yoko were persecuted for their politics, and the U.S. government under Nixon made several attempts to deport Lennon for his outspoken opposition to the Vietnam war. Lennon’s songs from his time with Yoko Ono like Power To The People, Happy X Mas, War is Over, Give Peace A Chance, and Imagine demonstrate a profound reflection on the struggles of humanity.

The Radiant Child Opening
My studio, Studio Number One designed the credits and I made the painting for the poster for the Basquiat documentary film by Tamra Davis THE RADIANT CHILD. The film is excellent, great interviews, art images, and music. I think this is the definitive Basquiat doc. It is playing at the NUART in LA and wider distribution depends on the LA attendance. Please support.
