Yesterday, five-year-old Liam and his dad Adrian were released from Dilley detention center. I picked them up last night and escorted them back to Minnesota this morning.

Liam is now home. With his hat and his backpack.

The final Halloween-themed painting I did of 2025. Rather more tradcraft than Halloween, I suppose.

The frog King stole my heart.

I remain optimistic about my ever-present themes of death, age, renewal, and befriending our gentle darkness.

I hope you’ll enjoy such themes in this piece I recently made for my mother.
