View artist portfolioAs I wait for the transit, I hear the sound of a muscian strumming his 3-stringed guitar. I see a man wearing a scarf to survive the 0 below weather and somehow his numb fingers are able to flip through those India thin pages of the Holy Bible. I see a man turning the pages of a newspaper as he catches the snot from his running nose. I didn't ask if they were homeless. They could be. They might not be. Maybe they just wanted to get out, get the hell out. I try to look closely to the unexpected things in life. I speak out against poverty and homelessness and wish for a more just system that provides enough for all, an even distribution of wealth, where human beings can live as human beings and be able to allow their soul time to discover their dreams.

Art of a Disturbed Mind, "Flustration"
Fantastic work of art! Interesting technique, very expressive and self explaining! Also I have to compliment the background story! Anyway, the major impression for me is that this painting is so vivid in its hope and so intensly optimistic due to its juicu colorull pallet - the victory of life (and humanity) is depicted there only we are not always aware of it? Waiting for the transit we can observe, digest but also we can transform. I enjoyed the transformation present on this painting because it seems so reversable. These characters can be anyone of us - past future present "citizens of the planet in transit"
I knew you had an artistic flair Dan, but this is wonderful! :)

This is a really cool collage. Interesting...
fabulous work!!!! congrats!
woooow its really good, but HELLSCARY! i would not like to see one of them in my dreams......
creative and free-going expression of art and life...
This brings you back down to Earth and reminds us to cherish what we have because tommorow we could join them waiting in the cold next to the Subway. It also instills in us the feeling to do more to help the needy and share a little bit of our time with the world. Good job! The description is so real!
It is a very interesting painting, to me it shows what happens when a person feels that doesnt have money or a place to live. A lot of things together almost getting crazy.
