Vallen 2005
Oil on masonite panel
9" x 12" inches
Vallen
created this painting especially for Workers of the World,
an exhibit organized by the A Shenere Velt Gallery in West Hollywood,
California. He chose to create a painting depicting a scene of
workers engaged in a strike.
Artist's
statement:
"My
artwork portrays a group of workers huddled in the early morning
light as they prepare for the day's rallies and picket lines.
As is the case with most of my art, the scene rendered is an authentic
glimpse of the streets of Los Angeles, yet at the same time it
reflects a common struggle from across the nation and indeed the
world."
