The War On Drugs - I Don't Live Here Anymore


The War On Drugs' fifth studio album, I Don’t Live Here Anymore, is an uncommon rock album about one of our most common but daunting processes—resilience in the face of despair.
Set for release on October 29, 2021. I'll be painting on Friday with I Don’t Live Here Anymore filling my headphones as I put brush to canvas. Can't wait...

The Water Carrier's Dream

The Water Carrier's Dream is part of an ongoing, globally inspired series of paintings that considers our place as humans in the larger natural world. The elephant is both a symbol of resilient strength and also, because of the ivory trade, has become a symbol of the possible extinction of numerous animal species. Water as well is a symbol of life. The bucket the woman carries is part of an effort to make clean water safer and more accessible from local, community owned water facilities in Tanzania. The train entering from the distance brings the painting into the present day.
