My father fought in the Korean War, and for the past three years I have been making quilts in his honor for Veterans. I am taking my Dad with me to a new fight regarding North Korea. Peace.

Nuclear War is not a fixable choice. The @POTUS sham summit with North Korea, the slap in the face of Veterans, the treasonous salute to a N.K. General - well, my father respected peace more than war.

Off and on throughout my art career I have drawn / painted pears. Like Vincent and his sunflowers, for me, pears reflect our condition in our environment. With my epilepsy and PTSD being worse right now due to strains inflicted by this administration, I'm going to focus on pears for a while. Oil pastels are almost a perfect medium if you have one subject you want to depict. I have a set of 60 Sennelier Oil pastels - consistent colors for a series of Pears. On 5 x 7 canvas panels.
