diplomats diplomacy copiers
Once the Xerox copier was invented, diplomacy died.
outspoken wanted carter
If I hadn't been so outspoken, Jimmy Carter wouldn't have wanted me.
kings hands land
I call upon both Republicans and Democrats to work with us to have a national ID card that is free and accessible. President Lyndon Johnson and Martin Luther King recognized was the greatest step for society was that short step into the voting booth. If we are to be true to their courage and conviction, we must make that short step as easy as possible. Surely, if we can land a spaceship on Mars, we can certainly put a voter ID card in the hand of every eligible voter.
rights unions explosions

expression design significant
My aim is to escape from the medium with which I work; to leave no residue of technical mannerisms to stand between my expression and the observer. To seek freedom through significant form and design rather than through the diversion of so-called free and accidental brush handling.
snow frozen painting
God, I've frozen my ass off painting snow scenes!
emotional purpose crafts
My aim is not to exhibit craft, but rather to submerge it, and make it rightfully the handmaiden of beauty, power and emotional content.

I am not a juicy painter.
