Family portraits:
My father, a military man. But also an artist of all trades. Painting. Plumbing. Home improvements. Also, republicanism. A father of two. A brother of five.
My mother, scatterbrained. Extroverted-speaking before thinking. Full of laughter and exaggeration. Transitioning into her middle-aged years. Sobering...
My brother, autistic. Video game-obsessed. Karate kickin'. Distant, but so close.
A lot of times I look at my friends. They're artists because they've got wacko genes. I was born from ordinary people trying to put some logic to their lives.
