Scott Wiggerman @scottwiggerman.bsky.social · 07/08/2025Here's the collage of a "thousand little pieces" I've been working on the past month. For now I'm calling it "Sky Scraped," but I'm open to changing my mind. It's 8"W x 20"H. Sorry for the table as background--that will change! (Open the photo up to see the full length) 030
Scott Wiggerman @scottwiggerman.bsky.social · 04/08/2025I have others, but in checking back, they're either local to Albuquerque or New Mexico, or they're in anthologies.

Scott Wiggerman @scottwiggerman.bsky.social · 02/07/2025Both Murkowski & Hawley were bribed with "exceptions" to policies in the bill. So unfair to other states, not that the whole bill isn't unfair to most every citizen in the country. 000
