Ink, gouache on paper, 31 ½” x 44” inches
A collapsed U. S. Secretary of Treasury Scott Bessent is lassoed and impaled by President of Argentina Javier Milei (dressed as a matador) and his Satanist assistant. Milei claims to have gone into politics with only “two toothpicks,” which morph into a bullfighter’s instruments that fell his American ally.

THE SHOT NOT HEARD ROUND SAMOA, 2026
Ink and gouache on paper, 40” x 28 ½” inches
U.S Secretary of Health and Human Services RFK Jr being inoculated with an mRNA vaccine by Nobel Prize winners Drew Weissman and Katalin Karikó, flanked by former Center for Disease Control Director and microbiologist Susan Monarez, a Samoan funeral director, children at risk and a dead bear cub that RFK Jr. confessed to dumping in Central Park in 2014.
Contrary to RFK Jr’s testimony at his Senate confirmation hearing, Samoan officials asserted that Kennedy's 2014 trip their country bolstered the credibility of anti-vaccine activists ahead of the measles outbreak, which sickened thousands of people and killed 83, mostly children under age 5.

TO DAVY JONES, 2026
Ink and gouache on paper, 56 ½” x 57” inches
Historically, sailors used the term "Davy Jones" as a nautical nickname for the devil or a sea demon. In maritime folklore, Davy Jones is known as the "fiend of the deep" who rules over Davy Jones's Locker—a mythical, purgatory-like resting place at the bottom of the sea for all sailors who perish.
A beleaguered messianic Trump is burdened here by a massive anchor and the weight of his bling. “Uncle Sam enacts his “I WANT YOU” slogan, extracting Trump from this world and banishing him to unfathomable depths.

SINKHOLE 2023
Ink and gouache on paper, 37.5 x 24.5 inches
SINKHOLE speaks to the engineered unravelling of electoral trust. It portrays a ballot worker diligently performing duties in a sinkhole of suspicion and harassment, surrounded by long lines in districts purposely assigned fewer polling stations, shorter voting calendars, and increasing restrictions. Above her are ghostly gerrymandering politicians who skew the democratic process, promoting disenfranchisement and undermining the spirit of authentic democracy.
