Diving for Percocets
12″x16″, Acrylic and Mixed Polymers on Wood, December 2008

I’ve been having a lot of trouble finding the right painkillers to deal with my busted-up leg… I like still being able to do things, so I can’t use drugs that make me drowsy, or worse, cloudy, like oxycontin or marijuana. This painting isn’t anything particularly profound and was done over two afternoons. I like the way the paint has been worked a lot.
