History Box

A collection of mixed media works on the subject of politics in America. “As a young artist, I was deeply impacted by such works as Guernica, Massacre in Korea by Picasso, and “The Third of May” by Goya. It occurred to me that one could and should paint about things that were beyond troublesome.” - David Brady
