MARGARET ATWOOD/ROB FORD

This piece was done in response to Toronto Mayor Rob Ford's cuts to libraries in the city of Toronto. Apparently he and his brother Doug don't know who Margaret Atwood is, don't care about the cuts and are okay with this. When people of sub-moronic intelligence are placed in positions of power, the first thing they usually make cuts to is the arts. Nothing new with this, but for them to be proud of their ignorance is scary to me. This piece is late, but it was done by request, so you'll have to excuse me. That being said, today was a kind of epiphany for me. I've decided which way I want to go with my images. I'm not there yet, may never be, but this piece is a start......and one more in a series of famous Canadians.
