Yam From Eggplant
The heavens are ablaze with glory as this yam bursts forth fully formed from an eggplant, as witnessed by a retinue of fruits. With thanks to my friend Jim H.
(Price Group C) 24x20
 Yambonie
This was my first Yam painting. The bottom one is actually a bonito and is next to a rib. The second one looked like a bird.
(Price Group A) 20x16
 Tribute to Chardin (Three Yams and a Cornbread) (C)
In honor of the great 18th century French landscape and portrait artist. The top two yam models looked like a walrus and a seal. The bottom one looked like a big submarine. 19x24
Yammus (B) 22x28
The superlative Yam. Yams are accompanied by citrus fruits. One critic sees this yam moving backwards in time to the dawn of creation.
Campy Ram with Yam and Lions (C) 24 x 36
It's really a goat. But it is becoming a ram. The yam is unusually orange and is from Alabama. It grew a propeller and became a blimp, piloted by a rubber duckie. The lion ate a lioness and became a cow. The cootie is trying to avoid being eaten by the heron.
 Sunrise over Yam City (B)
Acrylic on the rough side of masonite.
Yes, there is a colony of string beans in the suburbs. 24x24
 
The Giant Yam of San Ramon The Great Yam of Dublin
(Diptych 2B) 18x24 In honor of the twin East Bay cities.
The gate opens to a castle on a hill, speaking to the inner richness of this Yam.
 (Transgender Issues in) The Vegetable Kingdom (D)
King Yam sits on a bed of red bliss potatoes and rules over the root vegetables. Queen Yam sits on a mushroom, looking after her salad greens.
But the carrot wants to join his sisters, and the gourd wants to join her brothers! They have each grown little feet for that purpose.
Is that a butterfly, or a hawk eating a squirrel? 24x30
Yam of Doom (B) 20x20
This highly pockmarked yam is from North Carolina
and was shaped like a kidney bean. The painting is a synthetic view of
both sides at once.
May a moody baby doom a yam?
Not this one!
 Brokeback Yam
Yams will break if you drop them.(A) 16x20
 The Squirrel is making Strange Noises(B)
This little critter is standing on its hind legs and saying "A-O-OZZIG". I don't know what that means. But the painting is in honor of National Guard troops serving under trying conditions in Iraq, as the military figure is their commanding general. May they return to the land of squirrels and sweet potatoes soon. The Yam, which is in the painting but does not participate in its action, is a double rendition of the same yam. 24x18
