Proud of my Governor for pointing out the continuing cruelty of this administration. Trump is the first President to withhold food from Americans during a government shutdown.

While Donald Trump kicks children, seniors and people with disabilities off SNAP, he’s tearing down the White House to build a ballroom.

The President should be more focused feeding the American people than throwing parties for his rich friends.

Scott Galloway belongs in the Hall of Heroes. Speaking about Elon Musk he asks, "Does spectacular wealth excuse depravity?"

"The whole point of prosperity is so that you can protect people."

In February Donald Trump proclaimed "Long Live the King!" What he doesn't seem to grasp is that we fought a war to defeat a tyrant king.

On June 14th, millions of Americans will be in the street to tell him loudly we will have NO KINGS!

Don't stay home! Make your voice heard!

The latest member of the Hall of Heroes is ABC reporter Terry Moran, who schooled other members of the media in how to ask tough questions and how to not back down in the face of the ensuing lies.

Trump on immigrants: "... get them out."

Moran: "There's a legal process for that."

Mayor Michelle Wu of Boston, Hall of Heroes.

"This federal administration is making hard-working, tax-paying, God-fearing people afraid to live their lives. A city that's scared is not a city that's safe. A land ruled by fear is not the land of the free."

YouTube video by Artists Talk on Art ATOA DIALOGUE: Artists Robert Henry and Richard Neal talking about their work and art on Cape Cod

I was honored for the opportunity to interview the great painter, Robert Henry about a month ago on an episode of the longest-running artist series, Artists Talk on Art. Henry was a student of Hans Hoffman. The show is now available to watch on YouTube.

RIP Roberta Flack, Hall of Heroes.

She sang as if romance were a subject deserving deep, measured consideration. She believed that education is the key to unlocking doors of opportunity, where every student has a fair shot at excellence.

A fabulous screening last Saturday night at the Cotuit Center for the Arts where Jackie Reeves and Lauren Wolk premiered their animation/spoken word collaboration. Fascinating, powerful, and feminist - arriving at just the right time. Subscribe to their YouTube channel.

I call them "Building Stories" and they are on view at the Cultural Center of Cape Cod through March 1st in a show called, "Don't Judge A Book By Its Cover." If you are able to read the books, please let me know. I haven't had any luck with that yet.

These volumes languished in the ceiling of my house for 175 years. They came out as one large 2X8" chunk of pine during a renovation. I was mystified for a long time. One day, I saw what was in front of me. The books emerged with just two saw cuts and some minor work with a chisel and stain.

I'm thrilled to be included in "Transformation," the Winter Art Show at Cotuit Center for the Arts. The art is hung at a lower than standard height, and groups of school kids are bussed in to see the exhibit.

The show is curated and hung by the incomparable Michelle Law and will be up until Feb 23

Two of my figure collage/drawings are on exhibit at the Cultural Center of Cape Cod in a show called Fresh Perspectives. Up through Feb 2
