Pregame Brawl: 1935 Acrylic on Canvas 16 x20 inches 2022
'Through the teachings of Andrew Loomis, he learned that figure-drawing was a key element to many avenues related to pop-imagery and the storytelling process. The use of a more dramatic color palette is in keeping with the comic book tradition. Consequently, his subject matter ventures into issues related to ethnicity, economics, power-relationships, and a host of other social issues… all with a quirky, sideways grin from the left-hander’s perspective'

'The artworks she selected highlight themes, ideas, items and cultural touchstones that we all have a connection to. Many of the works in this show are colorful and fun but that does not mean that they are not also serious or responding to complicated social issues.'

This project picks up after the
climax of 'The Oath'.
With the setting located in the parched sand dunes of the Panhandle region of west Texas, we take a trip into the netherworld of the dispossessed farmers seeking both a steady job and self-respect.
