Description
As a kid in the 60's I had a lot of ghosts and fears under my bed. The Cold War, mobsters trying to kill my family, my Dad trying to kill them (succeeding 3 times that we know of) and on occasion, he’d tried to kill us.
I kept all those things under my bed. Painting lets me climb under there and see what I got. This came about as I see the attacks on Paris, the rising of Russia for a new Cold War.
Today's times remind of the 50's. France is at war with Muslims (i.e. Algerian war 1954-62), and the Russian president is pounding on desks and posturing a nuclear threat (i.e. 1960 Premier Nikita Khrushchev).
What I found here was Mr. Lenin and his Cold War, letting us know:.... "I'm only sleeping".
