 My door to political art opened at exactly 3:33 am as I woke one night with the strongest desire to scratch onto canvas the crazy I had witnessed in America over recent years.  Every day seeming just a little crazier then the last.
​In the beginning of Trump, what I first thought of as amusing soon flipped on its head and I watched my country catch on fire.  I saw endless, corrupt attempts to persecute a man who time and again would appear to me as being innocent.

I watched in amazement as politicians and news journalists burned their once proud professions to the ground by grinding out lie after lie at an astonishing rate.  No lie seemed over the top and no cover up to shameful.  But why a catastrophic meltdown over someone who would be gone in four or eight years.  It made absolutely no sense...  and then it slowly started to make sense...   Chill down your spine kind of sense.                                                   
​ What I saw had nothing to do with racism or climate change, gay rights or Russia collusion.  What I was seeing was a "Detection-Apprehension".  A hyperbolic over reaction when something bad you are doing is about to be discovered.  And then I realized what I had once thought of as "liberal extremism" was in reality "Marxist socialism," two very different things.  A full court press to overwhelm the system for a socialist insurrection was the only thing that made sense.  I know, sounds crazy, right?  But the more you look at the facts, the more it can't be anything else.

A public education system approving graphic pornography for little school kids.                        An open boarder mass migration resulting in untold taxpayer expense, human trafficking,      social instability, over 260,000 fentanyl poisoning deaths and over 300,000 lost children.    Shameless race hustling designed to divide American citizens with fear and hate.                      A national propaganda news media that lied and covered up crimes for a political agenda.        A climate change hustle that never leads to solutions, only spending, fear and chaos.            Tax payer funded abortion campaigns that would include Moment of birth termination.            A nation wide "Gender Dysphoria" campaign resulting in approved surgical and chemical  child mutilation with unknown future physical & mental health issues. 
Removing vital election safeguards like photo ID requirement, replacing paper ballots  with computerized systems that can be manipulated and the use of mass-mail in ballots.            Nazi style Antifa shock troops spreading fear and chaos that supports the democrat party.      Our own government departments being weaponized against conservative political opponents and make believe domestic terrorists including Christian church goers.                              Child grooming and drag Queen story hour for little kids making one question the sanity and  decency of who we face.  The signs were everywhere and never stopped.  A full throttle socialist coup was the only logical explanation of what was happening all around us and the only surprise was that nobody seemed to notice.

​ Amazingly I would continue to wake up at exactly 3:33 am over the next few years with more and more direction on where my art would go. I am a witness to the ghost, and this gallery is the fruit of those late night visits. During this time I learned that Good & Evil are very real things and that wolves do in fact wear sheep's clothing.  To my friends on the left, all of the "Trump Hate" has been a con and a trick to divide us while your socialist cage is being prepared.  We are an American family and we're being punked by outsiders.  In the end only one question matters...  Do you want to live in a shining America on the hill or in a socialist dumpster fire?

Before the political canvases came my first work had been to simply paint with no particular direction. I was not an artist and had no artistic intentions before this. As a curiosity I included a number of these early canvases below and consider them "Modern Minimalist".   

                             Thank you for your visit.
