The sky is for birds, not missiles

Young Louis campaigning for peace and disarmament, May 1993.

My mom emailed me this photo last week, saying her class of art students at Concordia was amazed by the deep meaning of the scene, considering my current work. Some would call it coincidence. In any event, I will take credit for some of the drawings (the rest go to my second grade Banff Elementary School classmates), and the purposefully child-like writing style of the letters LOUIS (part of the anti-war message). I didn’t demand a cut of the profits because, well, the blanket was donated… to me.
