The Saints by Joe McFadden with a little story line...
"The Saints are quixotic; grounded in history but very contemporary, serious yet whimsical. The fundamental idea is that of the shared universal experience, the more of a connection I have to the painting, the more honest it is, the more of a connection the viewer will have. In many of the pieces humor plays a role, breaking the unspoken rule about combining humor with fine art.
Humor is an important part of my life..." Joe McFadden
