The nature of our spirituality is a theme in many of my paintings. Are we spiritual beings having a physical experience? This is an acrylic painting of St Andrew after Jusepe de Ribera's masterpiece on a piece of plywood I found in the back yard. It was painted with supervision by Miguel Cortinas the head of the Art Department at UIW. I saw the original painting in Houston and it seems to me to pose the question well of whether we are earthly or spiritual -- or torn between the two. We seem most likely to be the latter with the devil looking over our shoulder. Saturday, May 10, 2014
