These two pieces, which combine to form a diptych, were  painted after being questioned on my opinion of what is beautiful art, and what is ugly art. Later, looking at a sparrow hatchling flung from its nest, I remarked on it's simultaneous grace and horror in death. So here is my response: the first piece is beauty, the second is ugliness.
