Acrylic on canvas, stretched and ready to hang.

Signed on the front.

When the sky turns ominous and threatening and storm clouds gather I'm never sure quite what to do. I could get all fired up, bring on a fight, mete out my own kind of justice, risking hellfire and damnation....Nah....kinda know how that turns out! I could roll over and say, 'you know what? I don't give a crap!' All smug and aloof .... let everyone else get all hectic and dramatic!... could be fun! I could find a safe haven, a refuge, hole up behind the pulpit and pray for deliverance from the worst of the fury....Hmmm? don't have many runs on the board there. Or I could just sit here wallowing in anxiety....only half in the frame anyway......muttering...all dull and itchy.....Ahh well...such is life.

This piece strikes at the heart of what I like to do - mixing up ideas, overlaying concepts, assigning new roles to things and giving characters a purpose different from what they would normally be. The sides are painted, it's varnished and ready to hang with wire across the back.
