so--- web site i do work for commissioned me to do this piece for the inevitability

that Hillary would win on nov 8th......i said i would do it---but told him  Trump would win in  a landslide-----he told me them it would be the most expensive art they ever bought  and didn't run the art.




if course---its a mis mash of all sorts of stuff from the actual CUSTER'S LAST STAND and likenesses from all over----it was a huge ask to do the job, anyway........here is a peek at history.

THIS----FATHERS DAY COVER---shoulda been the best thing ever

then-----with 6 hours to deadline-----i shut photoshop down because it was bogging down and acting funny. While it was shutting down---i  cleaned up my desktop--- throwing away some reference----a folder with old unused reference------------and EMPTY TRASH.


RESTART photoshop---------open recent items------cover is GONE


GONE!!!  2 and a half days worth of painting and sketching---GONE-----it was in THAT folder!!!!

i had been saving every 3 minutes--and it was saving to that folder
i hadn't taken a screengrab since 10 am----and that partial screengrab  was what i had to begin anew---with 6 hours to paint.

i had 4 hours in the dog alone that day--and the dog looked fabulous!!

anyway----i sent out what i had by 10 pm. it looked about 70% done in my opinion. but deadlines are deadlines.
