This is on oil painting by Fred Stonehouse who is one of my favorite living painters. He lives in Wisconson and show all over the US and in Eroupe. I have met Fred a couple of different times, the last time being at the Howard Scott Gallery in NYC last winter at his opening there. His work takes me some where else. I don't understand it and it confuses me which is whyu I like it. I like the way it looks as if it has had the shit beat out of it and the beating has just made it that more beautiful. It's as if each painting wears an invisible crown of thorns.
