Oil, 20" x 16", Oct, 1999.
This was my very first painting. It’s based on a photo of my parents, taken on a rare trip of theirs to Florida in the early 1950s. I added a UFO of course. Note that my mother’s hair is pointing upwards towards the saucer. I used to call this picture The Immaculate Conception, and say that the saucer impregnated my mother via information-rays, as surely I’m too special a person to be born of normal man and woman! But now I don’t bother saying that. I’m more like my father all the time.
