I’ve been here for a few days. It’s time to introduce myself to the platform. I’ll do that with the artworks I make and have made for the last 30+ yrs. 1st: my American Student series, which I do to highlight and advocate for the students I teach at Little Rock Central High School #contemporaryart
Kind of a big week. I have a solo show in North Little Rock featuring some of my American Student pieces from the last 8 years.

So, here we go. Four more years of Trump, this time with a cabinet and a Congress filled with MAGA loyalists.

This time, having won the popular vote—however narrowly. This time, with an electorate that increasingly sees him as normal.

Opinion | A whole generation of voters has never experienced politics without Trump
Worries about “normalizing” Trump are years out of date. Younger voters have never known politics without Trump.

After Thanksgiving celebrations this week, I got back in the studio. Of note, I’m back to painting on panel for this one, which I find to be a nice change of pace after working on canvas for a while “The American Student: Ada (Xinyue) Sitting for Portraits” 36x24” Oil on Panel #art #contemporaryart
