Breakfast.

This is a painting entitled "Breakfast" I did a while back. The piece was done using the mixed media process I had developed in my college days. I met a very lovely couple from Ireland who were kind enough to purchase the piece from me. The woman told me that they were going to put the painting over their small two person table in their kitchen where they ate breakfast together everyday.

Aww, shit. I think I just hit a bird.

That bird turned out to be the largest half of a dragon fly I had ever seen. He was stuck in the grille of our Ford F150. We placed him on the hood of the car to check him out and jumped back when he started undulating, seemingly trying to move his phantom abdomen.

These two titans lingered, flirting with each other for miles over the land of South Dakota. They only touched for this moment and then drifted apart again just out of each other's reach. Shot from the car during a 2004 cross country trip.
