About The Artwork

My son spends his homeschool days busying his hands making sculptures out of cardboard. It was cars and planes, now its always guns. It breaks my heart because I don’t like the guns. We fight over it. It is his creativity so I am divided in my feelings. Spending 6 hours in front of a computer when you are 10, I understand his need to do something with his hands. I would need to if I were in his shoes. So I provide ample cardboard and inspiration, glue guns and rubber bands. Perhaps he makes cardboard guns as an object of power. Like the cave people painting the pray they wanted to capture, he makes something that would give him power. My daughter has unicorns. She has the lyrics to her song. She has sitting still and behaving well and writing and reading as her power. In todays world, perhaps the female sex is better designed to be warriors of our society. We have a court of quick wits not brute strength. This painting is the battle of the sexes.
