Two new drawings .. I started making art with monkeys in 2012 and the theme has persisted. Here they are paired with large galleons or schooners as a symbol of the precarious situation of life and the melancholy of exile. I do not seek to make my work extremely representational or realistic, the monkeys are huge or the ships are tiny, it doesn't matter to me, the relationship is more of a symbolic one. I have some new paintings that I have made along this theme as well which I will share here soon.
