This is 12x8 mixed media piece was done a couple of years ago. I titled it "Night", and scratched the title into the black band under the Bear. (You cannot see it in the photograph.) The image came from a childhood memory of when I was about 3 or 4 years old and my father moved our house on a flat bed truck to the ranch he purchased. In rural Wyoming this was not the norm, but it wasn't all that unusual either. However, it was strange for me as a child to see my home on a truck going down the highway ahead of the car I was riding in with my mother and brother. Much later, in my late forties, I dreamed I was standing on top of the house being pulled by a truck, and my father was swerving, trying to knock me off the roof. In addition, there was a bear below the house. Interestingly, it was not a nightmare....it was only fascinating, and it required me to "balance".
