Alternative Facts

Post Election Painting

Eleven Eleven Make A Wish is something people say when they happen to look at a clock and it’s 11:11, and then they both make a wish. I felt two things after the 2016 election, how the hell did this happen, and we’re doomed. So I made this little painting of a person digging a big hole in the dark, at sunset.

It’s humor dude, don’t get all bent outta shape.
