Criselda Vasquez's 2017 oil painting, The New American Gothic, powerfully reimagines Grant Wood's classic 1930 masterpiece to honor modern Mexican immigrant labor.

Mr Warren pondering the next move before the next session of the Massachusetts House convenes. Overseeing the Revolution, commissioning privateers, filling requested troop levies for the Continental Army and paying for the war…it’s exhausting.

Billie Eilish during her #GRAMMYs speech for Song of the Year: “As grateful as I feel, I don’t need to say anything except that, no one is illegal on stolen land. It’s really hard to know what to say and what to do right now, I feel hopeful in this room and we need to keep protesting… fuck ICE.”

“That the Laws must be obeyed in a Government of Laws, is an all important Lesson: for what can be more destructive of Liberty and property, than Government without Law, whether in one, few or many. Insurrection itself is Government assumed, and without Law…” —John Adams, 3 Apr 1799

Redcoat photo shoot. Private, Light Company HM 52nd Regt, late 1774 People often ask me “why portray a redcoat?” My simple reply:” Somebody has to play the punching bag in our national narrative…” It’s a bit more complicated than that. But, their story is an important part of ours as well.

After a long stretch of sewing other things for other people, I finished my new coat for my impression of James Warren, Esq. Fully hand sewn except for four long interior seems that were also reinforced with machine stitching.

When walking about the town, a gentleman must have his walking stick and if the occasion calls for it, a sword. Pictured, a smaller ivory headed walking stick, another gentleman’s walking stick, and my trusty colichemarde (small sword) stowed in a corner during a visit to the tavern.
