Ben Rogers' poetry overflows with the music of life. With his own quirky mix of compassion and irony, insight and awe, Ben addresses joy and grief, growth and age. Each carefully crafted poem is rich in allusion. Rogers skillfully manipulates meter. His verse is sometimes arhythmic, sometimes lyrical. He proves himself equally adept at free forms or heavy structure. This elegant slender volume reflects the richness of Rogers' mind and the fullness of his experience.

Illustrated by Lacey Stinson
If you are a fan of T. S. Eliot,
you will be a fan of Benjamin Rogers.
A commissioned portrait, a serious work (all paintings should be), something valuable to have from then on. If you know my other works you know the value of a portrait (See NYAXE, or my Portraits page for examples.) Please contact me if you would like to negotiate a painting with figures in it, for this is what the painting becomes. It will be known as a painting, not a portrait.
Artwork
These are paintings with figures
and all the complexity that goes with that.
Portraits
I may surprise you with a bit of play, but the end result is the same: a stunning piece to share with others.
