"Anxiety and Panic" or "Daily Commute" and "In Death, perhaps Silence" These guys live together, they were done at the same time, with the same pallet, with one thing in common. Its horrific when mans medicines fail you, its terrifying when you realize there may be something amis with your noodle. Anxiety disorders are seriously common in the USA and among my generation. Why? Is it because the world is such a massive, unjust, dishonest, ruined, pile of detritus that we cant help it? Are we a generation of pessimists, nihilists, nay-sayers? Im not sure of the answers. #painting #artistsofinstagram #generalanxietydisorder #panicdisorder #ptsd #obsessivecompulsivedisorder #mentalhealth #mentalhealthawareness #art #expressionism #abstract #surrealism https://www.instagram.com/p/BtzV-gTnpGn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=18m8o6n9852rc

Untitled Acrylic on canvas I am struggling to title this so for now it is what it is. Its not going to be everyones cup of tea, but I cant really hide my contempt for this place. I paint a lot of things from the Cincinnati area, its my home. And not just physically. I was born here, one of my kids was born here, and I cant really put into words what this city means to me. Thats why I cant shake my disgust with Covington Catholic and their little shithead mascot. They are a symptom of a much larger problem in this region and country at large, a disease that infects the hearts of my fellow Americans. Call it, hatred, ignorance, fear, or bigotry. This "school" thought it would be a good idea to rile up a bunch of impressionable teens, stick them in that racist shit rag of a hat, and let them loose on the capital. That school has done racist and bigoted things before, caught on camera. Who knows what sort of awful things they are "teaching" these kids. Here I see two major problems, bigotry disguised as faith, and the Catholic churchs willingness to engage in this post fact diseased environment (why we let an institution that systematically hides child molesters in its ranks teach kids is beyond me), and bigotry masquerading as politics. These kids should be embarrassed, but their parents and "teachers" should be ashamed. Unfortunately, they wont be, they will hide behind ignorance, intolerance, and corrupt institutions. Not to mention crooked lawyers sending threats to people expressing disgust, like me. You want to sue for libel, good luck blocking everyones freedom of expression dirtbags. #politicalart #artistsofinstagram #painting #myart #covingtoncatholic #covington #northernkentucky #cincinnati #shameless #catholicchurch #nativepeoples #womensmarch #fuckfascism Cincy, NKY, we are better than this... https://www.instagram.com/p/Bte_RnWHwAf/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1fk3cum70s0zo

Crushed can # 2 These arent good, I dont like them. Everyone else though seems to like them, so I am going to do more. One (at the least) for every one of the breweries in #Queencity that I feel deserve an honor, not that my shitty watercolor is the "honor" any of these fine institutions deserve. Heres to you #MadTree, a true jewel in the Queens Crown. #madtree #madtreebrewing #beer #art #artistsofinstagram #watercolor #painting #cincinnati #hometown https://www.instagram.com/p/BtMz4a0nF9O/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=qtpb15x7n30w

Work in progress on my latest. I am disgusted by some recent events revolving around some local trash, so I decided, since I paint a lot from the Cincinnati area, that Id give a go at laying my odium out on a canvas. #art #artistsofinstagram #painting #paintersofinstagram #politics #politicalart #expressionism #workinprogress #cincinnati #kentucky #evil #gross https://www.instagram.com/p/BtICP9yn3WB/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=z2d1u15k272f

The cut in the hill Acrylic on canvas This guy took me too long, I got all hung up on it, and I still feel like it needs more, but youve got to know when to stop sometimes. Coming into Cincinnati is a pretty cool experience, there is a massive downhill to the river and the whole city just sits at the base, It never fails to make me absurdly happy to see this view #cincinnati #artistsofinstagram #myart #hometown #painting #paintersofinstagram #artforsale #queencity #art #acrylic #takenwhiledriving #drive #homesweethome #expressionism https://www.instagram.com/p/Bs4NVxnHLBO/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1ult9fmaw6xpw

Heritage. Its not my normal sort of post but here it is. Ive decided to embrace art, and attempt to be seen as an artist in my small little world. It has been a huge turning point in my life to begin to consider myself an artist. But art is my heritage too, I come from a family of artists. My grandmother was a painter, and like me, dwelled heavily on painting the place she loved, in her case Savannah GA and Tybee Island. My grandfather was an accomplished wood worker. His stations of the cross adorn the walls of St. Michaels in Savannah, and his birds, pipes, decoys, fish, and surrealist busts are coveted in the family. My Father must of picked it up because he is a good painter and a great carver as well. My mother has always had an ability to wield a needle, making me stuffed toys when I was little and now making beautiful quilts. And her sister, accomplished athlete, artists, activist. You can find her work in jewelry @screaming_girl_jewelry #heritage #art #family #jewelry #painting #woodworking #carving #quilting #familyofartists https://www.instagram.com/p/BsWfqp3lxTn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=16o98ptlljai7

The Davenport House I think I was able to stick to my style, and I am pretty happy with the results. I loved this place so much, and miss it regularly. I always recomend them to anyone I discover is making a visit to Savannah. #myart #art #painting #acrylicpainting #davenporthouse #history #historicsavannah #downtownsavannah #family https://www.instagram.com/p/Bro088xlNe_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=8p9692if93jg
