Each of Gary Armer's original oil paintings are unique, one of a kind creations, rendered in immaculate detail with the painterly brush strokes of an old master. Gary's work explores the fine line between passion and obsession, enchantment and preoccupation, touching on themes of nostalgia and sentimentality, as well as mass production, and commoditization. This piece, Fragmentation, from the series Halcyon Heroes, depicts a toy soldier preparing to throw a grenade, one of the classic little green army men that have invaded houses by the dozens or hundreds for decades.
