We usually think of a deck of cards as a tool for a card game and the cards are readily available in mass manufactured form. Titling my artwork after it is finished, “Open Deck” is my mixed Media game with a variety open to my discretion. “Adventure Island” is an escape to an unknown place, “Rampart Street Parade” recalls my family’s early neighborhood in New Orleans, Louisiana, and “Fire of The Night” is named for a quote from “Agamemnon”, a Greek drama by Aeschylus. “All Lips on Brooklyn” returns home to New York.
