"Prometheus Stumbled", 20x16", mixed media on canvas


"Prometheus Stumbled"


The heat incites stupid things. It fuels frustrations causing people to react in extreme manner. It stresses patience and wears at the fabric of our good nature... or at least those of us who have a good nature. It boils our brains and causes us to seek out the closest pool, sprinkler, waterhose, horse trough, etc. In our sweaty, sticky laspe of comfort, we tend to let good sense, logic and rational thought melt away. Embroiled and lost in our own personal discomfort, we become careless.
