A painting I did a while ago that will be in the next issue of Studio Visit Magazine. Still one of my favorites. #surreal #art #oilpainting

@hcrichardson.bsky.social wrote today about the founding of the UN. My dad Marvin Edwards was at the Preparatory Commission of the UN meeting in London in 1945. He was in uniform, working for an Army newspaper, and snuck in as part of the US delegation. He took photos and met Gromyko.

Happily surprised that my oil painting, “It’s All Coming Back to Me,” was selected by the Triton Museum for inclusion in their 2026 Salon. #art #painting #oilpainting #surrealism

I found this tucked into some papers when I was cleaning out the attic today. The timing seems propitious. #JesseJackson.

Just a little rumination on the current state of affairs. Turns out Walt Kelly was prophetic and as the country comes to a full boil, one has to hope that more folks will wake up and resist. #politicalart #drawing #art #iceout #politics

Walt Kelly, creator of the comic Pogo, famously noted that "We have met the enemy, and it is us." The administration we legally elected is doing more damage to our country that any foreign power would dare to undertake. #politicalcartoon #policitalart #constitution #politics

I asked @rubenbolling.bsky.social to illustrate an idea I'd had so I could print up some t-shirts to give donors at a trans rights event. He agreed and liked the result enough to run it as a "Tom the Dancing Bug." We raised $ for @hrw.org and @nclrights.bsky.social. Thx Ruben. You nailed it.

Said goodbye to one of my favorite paintings yesterday, but it went to a good home where they really related to the theme of “Do not go gentle.”

Just when you thought #MarkZuckerberg couldn't be any more of a spineless weasel and Trump sycophant, he lowers the bar. How greedy do you have to be to cut housing funding because it MIGHT piss off Donald Trump and decrease your wealth by a billion or two? www.mercurynews.com/2025/05/01/m...
Mark Zuckerberg’s philanthropy quietly cuts funding for affordable housing, homelessness groups
Many Bay Area housing orgs were caught up in the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative’s push to end ‘social advocacy’ grants in the wake of DEI scrutiny.

A lot of attention has been rightly paid to #AbregoGarcia and his incarceration in #CECOT, the #ElSalvador #prison. However, #AndryJoséHernándezRomero, a gay makeup artist, was arrested and deported because of his crown #tattoo, which is a common part of #threekingsday celebrations in #venezuela.
