A new tribute to Saint Michael The Archangel, by expressionist artist Stephen B. Whatley; created in September 2021 and completed on the Feast Day of Saint Michael, September 29th.
Stephen B. Whatley is a Catholic convert, a calling he felt through his spiritual search to survive early tragedy in his life; and his exhibition, "Paintings From Prayer" was staged at London's Westminster Cathedral in 2013.
The British London-based artist gets what he humbly feels a 'Divine Push' to paint tributes of faith, alongside his other work - a large body of which is on public display every day in the City of London, just outside the Tower of London - where his series of 30 paintings commissioned by Historic Royal Palaces, 20 years ago, vibrantly chart the history of The Tower.
As a permanent art exhibit reproduced throughout the walkway leading from Tower Hill Station they form a bright and colourful entrance to the Tower of London.

"Happy New Year 2021 !
My first piece of art of the year, created the first day of 2021 :
The Plaza, New York City; inspired by drawings made on location from the edge of Central Park in September 2019.
The eclectic architecture of New York City has always been of much inspiration - and I love this French chateaus-style hotel, opened in 1907 in Midtown Manhattan. It is located just off Fifth Avenue; close to the Frick Collection of Art that I was privileged to visit to visit on my first visit to NYC in February 2010.
The plaza has featured in several Hollywood films including Miracle in The Rain (1955), Arthur (1981) , Home Alone (1990) and It Could Happen to You' (1993)." ~ Stephen B. Whatley, London UK, January 2, 2021

German expressionism is one of my favourite movements of art. Here I am posing with a few of my books on the subject with the Otto Dix biography being highlighted. German expressionism was prevalent from the end of World War I until the early 1930s. With Hitler gaining power in January 1933, 'modern art' was endangered with many artists being arrested, fleeing the country or put in concentration camps as degenerates. A significant number of art works were either destroyed or ironically, confiscated by high ranking Nazis.
Expressionism Self Portrait.
Dolce 'gentle, I be'st a being tis most swotie,
An old courteous one on thee float of swanaz,
to breathe in embroider'd love eall abonder,
thee vestal leoht in thy blushing eyes,
thy brightness of thee smila conceals not,
thy fond crystal hlǣfdīġe of modest concern,
weeping disposition thy fairest cuore fuels,
dost thy not know'st thee herald andswaru that questions thyself?
a wynce is but a hence in the land of poetry all a flaw'd,
behold the shadow as tis toss's thy expressionist asyde,
bij a golden brush what shalle thine think of next?
a pen, a string,a thing between thy distill'd fingers most moist,
O' foul devouring creature that corrupts thou untrimm;d words ever lost,
thee expressionist thou ignorant terrain thou now treads by thyself,
witheryng beneath thy vapors of thou's breath stretch'd offenc's insults last,
thy trueself is never seen ultimate cost,
lascivious mirros cover'd, vulgar reflections reflect'd,
O' mortal expressionist time travel to thy time everlasting see,
here and there, past and future expressionists never cease to sayl thee seven seas,
hither to thy banquet where swagger with thee beggar is forever conduct'd ballades be,
to seek to embrace thy love that most shallen never meet!
thee expressionist tips thy crescent endear'd hat,
ac bids all a prize of manners that eall should ev'r seek!
