Storyteller (2015 Muse)

Give us birds in flight, Miracle Man.  Give us flights of fancy!  The big tent show is just about to begin!

Every year, driven by superstition I suppose, I do a portrait of my Muse.  (S)he is never the same two years in a row.  This is the first year (s)he wished to be seen in a male aspect.  I find it fitting and well overdue. 

I am also a huge fan of vintage Ray Bradbury.  In the back of my mind, I was thinking about the lightning rod salesman in Something Wicked This Way Comes while working on this.  I wondered if he ever just got tired of gloom and doom and simply wanted to bring wonder?

By tradition, each year's muse is limited to a print run of 30.  This year we are splitting up the run between two mediums. This piece is available for licensing.
