Sharing my passions, as I manipulated a variety of materials. Some people have called it art. It has also been a form of worship, and almost always has been the greatest fun.

My Backstory- and Personal Lifelong War

I’m not famous- but probably one of the busiest artists you never heard of, having been commissioned (Thank You Lord!) to execute literally tons and thousands of square yards of public art works in Texas from Houston to Kerrville. And in spite of institutional opposition, I have been granted by God to create an epic legacy to communicate my message. For decades, more or less ignored by Liberal Media, you will also not be likely to know my background story. Or why I am I so bent against Liberalism. Democrats.

My war with Libs started in childhood, working in the Goldwater for President headquarters in Houston, Tx, while listening to (then) California Governor Ronald Reagan nominate him at the Republican National Convention. THAT WAS IN 1964.

Ronald Reagan warned us then about the Socialist attack on our society. It proved true for me about ten years later as an Art Major at North Texas State University, (now University of North Texas) where my Liberal art professors drummed me out of their art school during my sophomore portfolio review, even though I was making A’s and a better artist than anyone in my class. (Selling my works at the time over in Dallas at a prestigious art gallery).

They called me an “anachronism,” and assured me that I would not find acceptance there. They advised me to change my major. It all culminated to that ridiculous result because, when they asked me why I sculpted or painted, I merely, naively said “…to glorify God and His creation.” From that point on, they were resolute in my rejection. You can see that, ultimately, I did not accept their counsel. But I did change majors, until I regrouped, and after prayer and re-commitment of my art to God, I quit school, got married and got a job. Eventually I got an art degree at Sam Houston State, and had a wonderful career as a muralist.

Still, I became an arm of the Liberal takeover of Texas education, painting murals in many public schools in five counties, often with “Mullti-culturalism” as the core theme. “Jesus loves the little children, red and yellow, black and white…” Right?

YES BUT, along with that theme came a quiet, underlying rebuttal of American Exceptionalism. If you do not know or appreciate what that is, then you are a successful product of Liberal indoctrination. If you do not understand that not all cultures, not all governments, not all religions are basically the same, and in fact you and I live in the GREATEST COUNTRY ON EARTH (or used to be) and we are blessed by the one true, LIVING GOD that engineered all of that, then you are a product of the slow but sure intellectual agenda of Communism.

I have been kicking against these Communist/Socialist “goads” all of my life. I quit doing murals for the public schools after doing a memorial for a Bryan, Tx school principal. Her grandchildren had been tragically killed, and in their memory, along with the mural was to be a plaque which read, “In God we trust these little ones.” Upper school administrators forbid it. When we offered to change the plaque to that motto on our US coins, (“In God We Trust”) it was still forbidden! That was around 2014.

The Liberal/ Communist’/ Atheist indoctrination of our educational system was complete.

But some of us are still fighting. And we know WHO will prevail in the end. What is your backstory? If Evil has not tried to trip you up, then choose Christ and step out and see how fast, and how relentlessly it will. Still, I would rather be a fencepost in Heaven than a prince in a Rolls Royce La Rose on the highway to Hell.

And that is the America many Republicans are fighting against with their totally fearless, awesomely effective, and yes, somewhat socially and politically retarded president. If he is fortunate, and has truly accepted Jesus as his Savior, (tough to tell, but we cannot judge) he might end up as a fencepost in Heaven with me, and I will gladly hang a laurel wreath around him for his trials and persecutions, and perhaps, the last great effort to right our national ship.
