Mixed Media Collage No. 11

Go Fund We | 2020 | Mixed media; cut paper, colored pencil, ink, and oil on BFK RIVES 100% cotton paper | 22.5 x 30 inches

December 1, 2020: I keep asking myself why in the world would a group of “high-powered” attorneys engage in a legal battle on behalf of the Trump Campaign to overturn the election, without any evidence? They do understand the way the justice system works (one would hope)? Unless the point wasn’t to win, but to give the illusion of a war to be waged ... a reason to fight ... and contribute to the cause. Who then, will be left holding the bag of millions when it’s over? That’s a good question.
