The
show is titled
"The Sleep"
and was inspired by
the artist's children.
" As I watch my children sleep with their innocent and
peaceful faces
I realize sleep is a behavioral state
that is a natural part
of every individual's life.
We
spend about one third of our lives asleep...it is a
required activity,
not an option, and needed for
survival.
There are still so many unanswered questions
about the reasons for sleep,
it's exact function, and
how physiological processes are involved.
On canvas I
explore this extraordinary event
we attend
every night."
