Looming

Part of my Cereal Box Portal series. Growing up in the 70's and 80's, the nightly news that Dad had on the TV every night during dinner (much to the chagrin of Mom) featured endless stories and comparisons during the Cold War. The constant one upsmanship of America's and Russia's nuclear arsenals kept us all in check with a healthy dose of background anxiety. 17.5x27" collage, oil pastel, and pencil color on double-pack cereal box, unframed.
