DAVE MERRICK A PAINTER OF LIFE
“I never thought I would ever paint such a thing, and I am ashamed
that I was forced to. I never thought that our country’s greatest
threat would originate in the office of its chief executive leader.
“I am ordinarily an artist who paints and draws different works
(mostly portraits) for people who commission me. However, since our
nation has generally sat on its hands as President Obama has applied
himself at dismantling us, I have been beside myself with amazement,
rage and sorrow toward him and the people who have enabled him. As a
result and in response to all that, I had to somehow SAY SOMETHING in
protest. Art is a universally understood language and I speak that
fluently, so I composed the attached artwork. It literally flowed off my
brush."
This was beautiful. Thanks for featuring it. The artwork says it all.
