I hope Charlie Kirk recovers quickly then, like James Brady, uses his megaphone to help advocate for common sense limits on firearms.

Thanks, Brian! The framed piece is part of their annual banned book gallery show. The artist reception is today. Although I can't be there in person, it is great to be part of it. This is the second year I've done the show and really love the challenge. I've learned so much.

My piece for the Banned Book show at Cottage Valley Library in New York. The opening is today.
I decided to illustrate "The Diary of a Young Girl" by Anne Frank back in April and couldn't imagine then just how far backwards our country would be heading in just a few months...it's so horrific.
