“The Rise of the Yellow Vests Act 23 - The Burning of Notre Dame” the viewer sees that it is based on a much older painting by Thomas Cole “The Curse of the Empire-Destruction”. My love of art history and how art can influence current events fuels my passion of expression. Using older known paintings in my collages helps tie the viewer into understanding the lessons of the past and how they are repeating in current times. Having the internet at my fingers, I gather images of the police brutality, yellow vests protesters and other symbolic imagery. Once these are on my computer, I remove the backgrounds so that the main character is isolated from its surroundings. This allows me to place these into larger scenes, something entirely new. Similar to traditional collage but on steroids. Then the end work is printed on large rolls of paper or canvas.

Inspired by America's landscape and the recent events with France's Yellow Vest movement the viewer will soon realize the similarities. Little Boo Peep, takes center stage as a symbolic leader who no longer knows how to communicate to with the sheeple while wearing a Covid-19 mask. Below her you can see police beating up on sheep, as a means of control. Juxtaposed with a bear riding a trike and an elephant standing on a ball outside of the circus tent. In the top left corner, the viewer see that Winnie the Pooh aka Xi Jinping is holding onto balloons that are actually the Covid viruses on their way to America.
