How is your year shaping up?
A new year is off and running with its inevitable highs and lows. “Here’s to life being good, despite it all!” answers artist Hurricane Nancy. Add to that a couple of new works to consider this time around, with accompanying commentary by the artist . . .
#439: I am an animal lover.
“My cat Sweetheart was adopted when he was young and feral. If I disrespect him, he will bite me. ‘Yikes,’ my friends say, ‘get a nice docile indoor cat.’ But I have come to see from him that animals, and even people, will bite if they are mistreated.”
#440: Penalty for speaking freely.
“Free and open speech to help us get an honest look at living ideas won’t hurt anything, even if some idiots believe that it does!”
a good message via art about animals and people.
Keep creating Ms. Nancy
Thanks so much, Carlos. It’s great to get supportive comments like this.
A scratch would be worse.
Ha, ha, ha! Yes, the scratch is to be avoided. Cats rule!
The scratch is anger. A bite is a courtesy warning.
How true!
Free and open speech.
What has happened to it? It’s mutated into something unrecognizable, conditional, one-sided… it’s very frustrating and heading toward scary.
Oh, but the good news: I was able to like this post! Out of nowhere, it worked suddenly! lol
You know, someone who gives me hope is Rep. Victoria Spartz, a Republican from Indiana. We need to have a two-party system (maybe more) and she comes across as an honest and level-headed person. She’s a Republican who won’t go along with any of the dirty tricks. Anyway, that’s what I’ve noticed. Hooray for that Like button working too!
