Original artwork description:

These muted tones of seemingly abstract paint passages coalesce to reveal, in the lower half of the canvas, the distinct form of the spread posterior of either a truncated male or female figure, in this case resting alluringly for expected physical engagement. Because such desirous coupling activities occur most often during the nighttime hours, or, if not, at least in the private yearnings of darker human nature, Night Portal seemed an apropos title.

Influences, among others, include Max Beckmann, Edvard Munch, Bob Thompson, George McNeil, Richard Diebenkorn, David Park, Francesco Clemente, R.B. Kitaj and Willem de Kooning.
