	<description>About art &#38; the art of Jake Beckman, painter of magical realism &#38; representational abstracts.  &#34;Currently I paint binary &#38; birds based on humorous observations of social media &#38; other forms of electronic communications. Alternatively I am exploring mathematical abstraction in my new non representational work.-Jake&#34;</description>
