ABOUT THE ARTWORK
You can't fight a war with nobody to fight back But if we get to digging to the bottom of the stack We'll sell it to the youth and you never know, maybe You'll get back home and you'll see your baby, oh We'll just act like we care All we're needing is a reason, it don't need to be clear Singing songs to the news, it can play to their fears Someone's got to die and you don't have to love him But the military's still got more in its budget, oh We always need more next year No one cares about the waves At the bottom of the ocean And at the bottom of the ocean It's always blue No one will remember 'Cause nothing lasts forever And everybody's looking For somebody to use When you don't bring them home and the war hasn't ended There's still money there and that money needs spending The powers that be, we got to do what we do If they never know it then they'll never feel used, oh Like I often do To all the pretty girls out there looking for heartache Crying, "All I wanted is to be your baby" And all the pretty girls out there living with heartache Crying 'cause they're never going to see their baby, oh We just act like we care No one cares about the waves At the bottom of the ocean And at the bottom of the ocean It's always blue No one will remember 'Cause nothing lasts forever And everybody's looking For somebody to use No one will remember 'Cause nothing lasts forever The world is always changing And it's always blue And it's always blue ‘Waves’ by Portugal. The Man Songwriters: Asa Taccone / Brian Burton / Matthew Compton

I’m (I am?) a self-taught artist, originally from the north suburbs of Chicago (also known as John Hughes' America). Born in 1984, I started painting in 2017 and began to take it somewhat seriously in 2019. I currently reside in rural Montana and live a secluded life with my three dogs - Pebbles (a.k.a. Jaws, Brandy, Fang), Bam Bam (a.k.a. Scrat, Dinki-Di, Trash Panda, Dug), and Mystique (a.k.a. Lady), and five cats - Burglekutt (a.k.a. Ghostmouse Makah), Vohnkar! (a.k.a. Storm Shadow, Grogu), Falkor (a.k.a. Moro, The Mummy's Kryptonite, Wendigo, BFC), Nibbler (a.k.a. Cobblepot), and Meegosh (a.k.a. Lenny). Part of the preface to the 'Complete Works of Emily Dickinson helps sum me up as a person and an artist: "The verses of Emily Dickinson belong emphatically to what Emerson long since called ‘the Poetry of the Portfolio,’ something produced absolutely without the thought of publication, and solely by way of expression of the writer's own mind. Such verse must inevitably forfeit whatever advantage lies in the discipline of public criticism and the enforced conformity to accepted ways. On the other hand, it may often gain something through the habit of freedom and unconventional utterance of daring thoughts. In the case of the present author, there was no choice in the matter; she must write thus, or not at all. A recluse by temperament and habit, literally spending years without settling her foot beyond the doorstep, and many more years during which her walks were strictly limited to her father's grounds, she habitually concealed her mind, like her person, from all but a few friends; and it was with great difficulty that she was persuaded to print during her lifetime, three or four poems. Yet she wrote verses in great abundance; and though brought curiosity indifferent to all conventional rules, had yet a rigorous literary standard of her own, and often altered a word many times to suit an ear which had its own tenacious fastidiousness." -Thomas Wentworth Higginson "Not bad... you say this is your first lesson?" "Yes, but my father was an *art collector*, so…"
