Christopher Hitchens——————–Late Joe Ramundo ————————Mother Teresa
My art, music and events scene in NY/NJ
I drew these three images inspired by the Universal Studio classic horror movie series circa 1931 – 1945
Karloff’s “Frankenstein’s Monster”———Gloria Holden as “Dracula’s Daughter”——-Lon Chaney‘s Jr’s “Wolfman”



These interesting and creepy portraits are done in a white-on-black technique
Pencil drawings of my late great-aunt, Severina (Sadie) Miranti Colaneri


This is a portrait of artist and musician, Myke Hideous and Kerry created in ink on cardboard in 1993.

The composition is an obvious and intentional parody of Grant Wood’s “American Gothic.


This is almost a monochrome painting honoring the TV show “Flash Gordon”… popular in the 1950s, revived from the movie-theater serials from the 40s, done in tromp l’oeil or “fools-the-eye” style. The 3D effect has to be seen in person to appreciate.
