- MY MOST RECENT WORK - MY DAD HAD SURGERY IN PARIS A FEW MONTHS AGO. HE AND MY MOM WERE STUCK
in an apartment there throughout the lock-down period while he recuperated. The last time I was able to visit them he complained about the dreadful decoration surrounding him and and asked if I could make him a painting while I was there.

Creativity Explored, a San Francisco Art school for developmentally disabled adults sells great work online. I recently purchased Untitled (Donald Trump Likes...) by John Patrick McKenzie there.
