Still his themes produce paintings. No compromise but elaborate essence bulging with symbols of Life. But he doesn't put man as a god or giant in his painting. Indeed there are people appearing everywhere, but like in Japanese painting the figures become small, almost fragmentary, in the huge landscapes and under the skies. Man becomes a clown, or harlequin.
Man becomes the lonely child holding the doll and being cold with large eyes.
There is a picture in this painter's collection that I feel especially strong about. Man appeals to someone for mercy. Love and heaven opens an eye in its beauty, revealing the answer to man's question which he has always borne. The answer is thus in our longing. That painting has an air of forgiveness and therefore becomes important.
