Amere-ca, (Bitter Situation) oil on canvas,  60"X26"  $15,000.00

 

An undocumented immigrant facing deportation. America was suppose to be a land of milk and honey, where the streets were paved with gold. I grew up with the rumor that Americans did not used pennies. They threw them away and all you had to do is collect them off the streets and you would have extra money. Thus the sign behind him on the wall which reads "A-merry-ca". The anxiety on his face is well founded. His future is uncertain and hunger is no laughing matter.
