I used to be a renegade I used to fool around But I couldn't take the punishment And had to settle down Now I'm playing it real straight And yes, I cut my hair You might think I'm crazy But I don't even care 'Cause I can tell what's going on It's hip to be square It's hip to be square I like my bands in business suits I watch them on TV I'm working out most every day And watchin' what I eat They tell me that it's good for me But I don't even care I know that it's crazy I know that it's nowhere But there is no denying that It's hip to be square It's hip to be square It's hip to be square So hip to be square It's not too hard to figure out You see it every day And those that were the farthest out Have gone the other way You see them on the freeway It don't look like a lot of fun But don't you try to fight it An idea whose time has come Don't tell me that I'm crazy Don't tell me I'm nowhere Take it from me It's hip to be square It's hip to be square It's hip to be square So hip to be square Tell 'em, boys So hip to be square (Hip, hip) 'Hip To Be Square' by Huey Lewis and The News Songwriters: Huey Lewis / William Scott Gibson / Sean Thomas Hopper

I’m (I am?) a self-taught artist, originally from the north suburbs of Chicago (also known as John Hughes' America). Born in 1984, I started painting in 2017 and began to take it somewhat seriously in 2019. I currently reside in rural Montana and live a secluded life with my three dogs - Pebbles (a.k.a. Jaws, Brandy, Fang), Bam Bam (a.k.a. Scrat, Dinki-Di, Trash Panda, Dug), and Mystique (a.k.a. Lady), and five cats - Burglekutt (a.k.a. Ghostmouse Makah), Vohnkar! (a.k.a. Storm Shadow, Grogu), Falkor (a.k.a. Moro, The Mummy's Kryptonite, Wendigo, BFC), Nibbler (a.k.a. Cobblepot), and Meegosh (a.k.a. Lenny). Part of the preface to the 'Complete Works of Emily Dickinson helps sum me up as a person and an artist: "The verses of Emily Dickinson belong emphatically to what Emerson long since called ‘the Poetry of the Portfolio,’ something produced absolutely without the thought of publication, and solely by way of expression of the writer's own mind. Such verse must inevitably forfeit whatever advantage lies in the discipline of public criticism and the enforced conformity to accepted ways. On the other hand, it may often gain something through the habit of freedom and unconventional utterance of daring thoughts. In the case of the present author, there was no choice in the matter; she must write thus, or not at all. A recluse by temperament and habit, literally spending years without settling her foot beyond the doorstep, and many more years during which her walks were strictly limited to her father's grounds, she habitually concealed her mind, like her person, from all but a few friends; and it was with great difficulty that she was persuaded to print during her lifetime, three or four poems. Yet she wrote verses in great abundance; and though brought curiosity indifferent to all conventional rules, had yet a rigorous literary standard of her own, and often altered a word many times to suit an ear which had its own tenacious fastidiousness." -Thomas Wentworth Higginson "Not bad... you say this is your first lesson?" "Yes, but my father was an *art collector*, so…"
