'A painter may know what he does not want. But woe betide him if he wants to know what he does want!' - Max Ernst
'In a sense all painters become what they were relative to that which preceeded them and that which will come after them'. Historical Culture, in the modern world, is created at the fringes of Society and not at its center and in the largest phenomenal sense, the 'Art World/Art Market', at large, has absolutely no idea what is actually transpiring in the real world. This, historically, has ALWAYS been the case.

R.S. Beal 'Crucifixed by the Back-water' (Detail) Oil 63 by 48" 2006
sub-title: 'Stem-Cell Christ' or Stem Cell Crucifiction
'Working all thru the cold winter of 2006 (without heat), where thanks to the wonderful environmental policies of G. Bush, the average inside studio temperature often got down to 30 degrees below zero, this work was finally completed. The 'pun' title 'The Wonderful Fabulousity of Jesus Christ' is a play off the work of Scott Brooks (The fabulousity of god), albeit the two works have nothing, or at the least little, in common. I hope I have made the work ambiguous enough so that even the astute viewer cannot tell if I'm 'mocking' religion or aggrandizing it. Living in an environment where one wakes up every morning and turns on TV and see's the local homo-phobic, pedophiliac psuedo priest-minister (Oral and the boys') screaming, "Hallelujah, Jesus saves, praise Jehovah . . . send all your money to blah, blah, blah and you'll recieve a gold-lined blah, blah, blah", makes one wonder about the overall literacy of the immediate enviroment. It is precisely this environment which has disallowed any showing (of my work) for well over 30 years and in actuality the 'central figure' is simply a Paraguay cliff diver . . .
