Ferris: It's a little childish and stupid, but then, so is high school. Economics Teacher: In 1930, the Republican-controlled House of Representatives, in an effort to alleviate the effects of the... Anyone? Anyone?... the Great Depression, passed the... Anyone? Anyone? The tariff bill? The Hawley-Smoot Tariff Act? Which, anyone? Raised or lowered?... Ferris: Four thousand restaurants in the downtown area, I pick the one my father goes to. Ferris: Let's go. Cameron: Let's surrender. Ferris: Never. WLS Radio Announcer: It’s a beautiful Chicago day. Temperatures expected to reach the upper 70s. Right now, 75 at the Lake Front. 74 at Midway. 73 at O’Hare. And now, up in the sky… from ‘Ferris Bueller’s Day Off’ (1986) Starring John Hughes (“Larry Bird doesn't do as much ball-handling in one night as you do in an hour!”), Richard Edson (Mario Mario’s Mario), Kristy Swanson (“All I want to do is graduate from high school, go to Europe, marry Christian Slater, and die.”), Johnny Hardin (‘Gleaming The Cube, You're the best, you own it, and nothing can stop you now.’), Virginia Capers (Grodin’s Beethoven’s 2nd), “Nobody puts Baby in a corner.” (Swayze’s Red Dawn), Larry Flash Jenkins (Mr. Mom), Col. Robert Shaw (“There's a kind of freedom in being completely screwed... because you know things can't get any worse.”), Mia Sara (Cruise’s Legend), Topper Harley (Ponyboy’s Red Dawn), Cindy Pickett (FLEA!’s Son in Law), Captain Harriman (Vaughn’s Freaky), Secret Service Guy (Planes, Trains, & Automobiles), Ben Stein (House Arrest), and Edie McClurg (“We're into B&D but not S&M. We met at the A&P.”). Written and Directed by John Hughes (“I don't think I want to know a six-year-old who isn't a dreamer, or a sillyheart. And I sure don't want to know one who takes their student career seriously. I don't have a college degree. I don't even have a job. But I know a good kid when I see one. Because they're ALL good kids.”).

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…"
