My covers for Captain America #17  (Vol 4, 2003). Image of Cap before a damaged Lincoln Memorial, touching the fallen head of Lincoln on the steps. For the "Cap Lives" storyline where our Cap ends up in an alternate timelines where Fascists and Nazis take over the USA. He, and we, need to shield the innocent, find your allies, and fight back against evil. Hard.

Had such a lovely closing reception at the Statehouse for the Hoosier Women Artists program. This painting has been hanging in the offices of the Lieutenant Governor. It’s a beautiful beautiful building, I just wish we could have had elected Dem Jennifer McCormick as governor.
