A technique that utilizes circles as a method of applying paint or any medium that one uses. The circles bring out the subject or it can also camouflage the subject. It depends on the viewer's point of view. See www.circlism.com Painting in the method of Circlism which was first discovered by me in 1985. It was used in 1996 in sketches that I made and finally in 2000 was used with oils on masonite.

Molecular Structure of Nucleic Acids: Watson and Crick put forward a radically different structure for the salt of deoxyribose nucleic acid. One remarkable thing about the DNA molecule is that it can build an exact copy of iteself. A standard biology textbook states: "The process of duplicating itself is known as replication. During replication, enzymes break the weak hydrogen bonds, the bases of the nucleotides. DNA separates into two halves, and this separation exposes the nucleotide bases to its complementary base- Adenine to Thymine, Guanine to Cytosine." This painting celebrates the marvel discovery of these two scientists, and depicts the beauty of their discovery.

Thank you for taking time to understand Circlism. Each painting has its own unique reality. The viewer may perceive something all together different. This is the nature of any work, a million variations with a million unique responses. I hope you can see and appreciate each piece as a journey into millions of possibilities!!! If you want to reach me in order to purchase a panel, a t-shirt, a mug or to just discuss the implications of any of my paintings you can email me at: ecs25858@yahoo.com .

Dare we Ask?: The viewer faces the captivating beauty. The rollings hills, the crystal blue waters, the enchanted forest, the palatial castle, and the spacious greenhouse creates a peaceful serenity. The "No Trespassing" sign enforces a sense of security. An open gate? is something in the water? Is there someone hiding? Invisible to the eye danger is all around, but can we see it? An underlying false sense of security is pervasive throughout the painting. Even though the viewer can only be enamored by the surroundings!



Justice for All: Equality for all people is a universal battle that engages all of us. The fight for justice is rooted in a human struggle towards this basic human right.
If you ever get a chance to view this painting I tried to depict all the early black leaders, and the leader who declared the Emancipation Proclamation. The struggle for freedom continues today throughout the world with all people!!! A chance for being treated with decency and fairness!!!

Fire Department New York Tribute: The destruction of the twin towers turned a page in history. The courage and strength of our firefighters brought a new meaning to the concept of hero. This painting was lucky enough to be displayed at the Museum of Burbank Firefighters and Police for about six months in 2003. I want to thank Firechief Pansini.
I was able to visit New York in 2006, and one of the firefighters placed a copy of this painting on the outside window of the Firestation that is directly across from the Twin tower site!!! So if you are ever in New York let me know if you saw it.



The Questor: A knight, a soldier, a prince, a conqueror for the ages. He leaves everything behind because he is searching for his lost love. He is reminded of her beauty, her gentleness, her kindness, and her strength. He tries hard not to lose focus of his quest to save his loved one from an evil force who has entrapped her for his own pleasure. Of all the paintings I see this one becoming an animated feature. I have developed a story that I will try to describe in more detail later on.



Interiors-Space Station involves different degrees of jeopardy and hanging on to one's sanity, as an astronaut must cope quickly and directly with the immediacies and perils of each situation.



King William Street is a mosaic of city life that brings together both the old and the new and perceives it in Circlist fashion. The Masters have set the way and directed us towards the road of fulfillment. It is now time for the Apprentices to take what they've learned and apply it.



Heaven and Hell we all have a choice between getting lost in hate or finding the truth and reconciliation within oneself. The Hell we all await is truly painful and as punishing as one can imagine. If one is willing to take the road of righteousness and travel through the river of Penitence, God is waiting.



Melody on the Hill juxtaposes different landscapes in relation to one another. A mysterious figure stands in the middle of a vibrating earth.



Life Force takes the viewer on a journey that once begun takes on a life of its own. The process of birth is a journey into the unknown world that must be taken by all who enter it. The journey doesn't end with birth. Birth is only the beginning. As a Chinese dissident once stated, "One must learn the world well for it is home to all of us."



Japanese Garden takes Circlism to the next level. Shapes and figures can be utilized to project all kinds of different images. The garden connects by bridging concepts of both family and nature together as one.



True Love is a projection of landmasses in love that have been thrown together side by side. The love that is shared makes them grow more deeply attached to one another.

Galaxy is a complete Circlist painting. This piece reaches deep into the formation of the planets, stars, and consciousness. These planetary bodies come together in relation to our understanding of the universe by committee or council. Order brings about chaos and visa-versa. This piece allows us to see how justice is served!

                                                                                     


The Chase involves the fact that, no matter what, you can't get away because everyone has his or her eye on you. This concept can be traced to Ray Bradbury in which the media's attention to the chase becomes so captivating. We all want to tune in to see what happens!!!



The next painting is entitled Orchard. Orchard is a combination of several techniques. Circlism is slowly emerging as a concept in itself. Lovers mark the tree, and find their own personal domain, as they possess it.



After the debacle of losing my domain name, I want to make sure that the paintings can always be somewhere that people can view them. I have claimed circlism.com for one hundred years, but I will also post them here for security reasons.
Pathway is a pebblestone walkway that leads the viewer into three different paths.
