PERSISTENCE OF LIFE SERIES

“Persistence of Life” is a series of 8 oil paintings on canvas on panel created in 2023

Life on Earth is a function of Time in an extraordinary environment. Life is not magic, but it is miraculous. Within billions of years on this uniquely situated planet the trial and error of evolving life becomes self evident. And once Life exists it persists. These paintings are symbols of evolution.
