CHANUR’S BREAKOUT (1991)
Acrylic on Watercolor Board - 30” X 22”
An opportunity to paint C.J. Cherryh’s catlike Hani was always welcome. I was fortunate to have done several covers for this popular series, yet for CHANUR’S LEGACY I came up with more new concepts than ever before. 1/5

My Aunt Melba is probably related to my mom because that's just how it is in deep South Texas, but until they figured out they're probably related she was my mom's best friend
I recently met another of my aunts, who is my mom's cousin but is still my aunt
I thought this was standard practice

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.

I try not to be a hater about E-bikes, more bikes is good even if it's not how I want to engage with a bike
But it's real hard not to be a hater when you get run off the trail because two chucklefucks on tiny motorcycles don't know how to pass on a trail
