Leper Beauty (Acrylic on cardboard, 12 x 20 inches)

In 1999, I painted this portrait as part of a hands-on healing project at a Leper Community in Bali, Indonesia. Although the left-hand side of the 23-year old subject had been ravaged by leprosy since birth, her right-hand side remained unaffected. The painitng captures the remarkable subtleness of beauty on her unmarred side. Miraculously, within 3 months following the completion of the painting, the girl experienced a total reversal of her condition. Research indicates that certain Caucasians possess a body chemical that potentially alters various forms of leprosy. Perhaps this chemical in my body was responsible for this miracle.

Metropolis 2012 (Mixed media, 15 x 15 x 15 inches)

This city complex design depicts a first-of-its kind, self-sustainable, 1-mile square, eco-architectural urban model that uses solar energy, vertical farming and self-contained water purification to feed, house and support a healthy and productive population of 1,444,000 on-site residents. Coupling architectural concepts from Pablo Solari with technologies that have been independently researched by Marshal T. Savage as well as Jacques Fresco, the construction of this innovative, self-contained master metropolis -- when properly engineered, fabricated and installed -- will present a threshold opportunity in cutting edge, eco-friendly solutions for global food, housing, energy, commerce and agriculture while maintaining environmental integrity.
This painting has long been my favorite. In putting attention on a genuine sense of the leper girl's attractiveness, it is my opinion that Jack's depiction may have allowed the girl a glimpse of her own beauty for, perhaps, the first time in her life. On the psycho-spiritual dimension that links body, mind and heart, this viewpoint of a fresh self-perception may well be what aided the girl in mustering the courage and confidence to heal. It's a touching story and an equally lovely painting. It truly has all the hallmarks of a masterpiece.

Oops! My error! Please remove the photo of "Metropolis 2012" as I mistaken submitted TWO pieces of artwork rather than one, and I would like the entry for "Leper Beauty" to stay. Thanks.
I paint for the sheer pleasure of it. The process clears my mind and makes me feel pleased with myself. However, trying to figure out how to send this photo in the right pixels is driving me nuts.
