About the Book

"Missing Picasso," a 107,000 word historical novel, portrays a very different man than the artist we all think we know. Could the founder of the Cubist movement have had a deeper motive than the exploration of new artistic territory? Was he in fact consciously or unconsciously creating a vehicle to carry secret symbols? If so, how do we reconcile his mission with his known personality faults and shortcomings? This is the story of Picasso struggling with timeless themes and neuroses, attempting to find inner peace. Picasso's interests and experiences allow for a far ranging exploration of subject matter still very much informing our modern world regarding ancient secrets, governmental and religious manipulation, secret societies, and personal power. Is Picasso a misogynistic atheist or does he insert symbols advocating the equality of the sexes and basic Christian teachings into his work? Why would an atheist paint so many religious themes? Does "Les Demoiselles d'Avignon," reveal him as a Grail Seeker? Could Cubism be a means to an end? Is Picasso a man struggling with his inner demons despite his calloused public persona? Is he really more of a pawn than the king he seems to believe himself to be? Has he been used by his illusive friend, Jean Cocteau, to prepare the way for a secret society to reveal a message? Have we been "missing" Picasso all along? In Missing Picasso, the great artist, guided by a mysterious eccentric cave-dwelling hypnotist with an ancient hawk, learns how to redirect his childhood decisions, repressions and societal assumptions, as he strives to become a better man. Diving into the stream of creative consciousness, we are reminded of our own struggles, frustrations, and neuroses, and also of the hope, forgiveness and power inherent in our being. Picasso may well be another flawed fellow traveler on the path, but his flamboyant, bohemian personality guarantees an interesting and colorful journey, vividly and raucously depicted in the pages of Missing Picasso. We are privy to the artistic process of the master jester, in the studio at his side, co-creating with him and at his favorite gathering place where gentility and peasants mingle. Missing Picasso is a literary journey that leads the reader from mythical adventures through the dangers of Nazi occupied Paris and the inner and outer trials and tribulations of the man who revolutionized the art world and, as a consequence, what we accept as possible or true. The novel's petals gradually unfold, culminating in a miraculous transformational dénouement at a bullfight in a small Spanish town. History buffs, conspiracy theorists, art lovers, people with a penchant for self-help and readers who are just looking for a well spun yarn will enjoy Missing Picasso, first in a series of related works currently in progress. If you think you know Picasso, think again. You may be missing Picasso.
