A ubiquitous Greek island scene. I painted this view from a photograph sent to me by a friend from overseas. One would think that the same architect designed every house on the Greek islands. (1m x .75m acrylic painting).

"El Torero y el Toro"
I did this painting for a special event in 1964.
It was first exhibited in the following year.
(1.6m x 1.1m vinyl painting).

Chillon castle on the shores of Lake Geneva. Francois Bonivard was imprisoned here for six years after incurring the displeasure of
Charles III, Duke of Savoy, in 1530.
His plight moved Lord Byron to write his famous poem "The Prisoner of Chillon", which inspired me to do this painting.

A village nestled among the Austrian alps.
(1m x .75m acrylic painting).

"Meteora". One of the many rocky pinnacles of a complex in Greece that became home to the monks who built their monasteries on top of them for protection from the invading hordes.
