CIRCUS BOXER
(Circa 1930)
They call me the Irish Champ. Most days I box 5 or 6 fights, because after one crowd sees me clobber some poor sucker no one else will step up until a fresh crowd wanders in. We live in a depression; no work, no money, less hope. I had hope once. Her name was Irene.
Deeply in love, hoping to marry, but without two nickels to rub together, I tried iron work, road work, labor, dock work, anything and everything. Every job dried up. Bosses were broke too. That's when I landed in the sideshow.
I'm strong, I'm big. I'm angry. I can hit. That's all the job required. 5 bucks buys a challenger 3 rounds. If he beats me he takes home 50 bucks. Sounds good 'til I tell you I've never lost. That's how it works. We're here for profit. It takes a cocky farm boy two weeks to scrape 5 bucks together. It takes me 3 rounds, usually less, to relieve him of that sum and humiliate him in front of his girlfriend and drunken pals.

I was raised in the Pacific Northwest and the rich visual imagery of popular American culture. I am a diverse-works artist but am often described as representing the low-brow genre. From pop to classic portraiture, I seek an eclectic approach to painting. I'm frequently drawn to obscure subjects and time frames. I also believe the art should speak more than the artist. Thanks for observing and considering my world view through the art I've created.
