Original artwork description:

It's a blow up doll holding a gun. Does this look insane? I challenge the notion that anything holding a gun should be regarded as normal.

I do believe that it's my task, as an artist, to find imagery everywhere, not just render the beautiful. I love beautiful landscapes but I find beauty in the dark and unsettling. I find this combination of imagery unsettling and challenging. It's also amusing in a dark way, well it appeals to me at least.

Signed on the side.
