"Dates" paintings finished in 2012

DATES
Part of a series based on dates over about 2years. For example; June 25, 2009, the day both Farrah Fawcett and Micheal Jackson died. Still working on 08/08/08 and many others.  I have a backlog of paintings that I have been slow to finish.

"Target, Yellow", Acrylic and Enamel on Paper, 2012 
Homage to "Cy" Twombly
 April 25, 1928 – July 5, 2011



" People Who Died on June 25, 2009",  Acrylic and Enamel on Paper, 2012

The fisrt one relating to dates was 0123456789;  that was the day of  the Tiananmen Square Massacre.  The painting was a Chinese Boy Soldier which I sold and can't find a photo and I don't remember who I sold it to. It was signed at  01:23 p.m. and 45 seconds on June 7, 1989, So; 


01:23:45,6/7/89

I have absolutely no reason for doing this other than a little OCD or just to force some work out of me.
