BABOON – BUFFOON

painted wood, 18″ x 12″, 2006

This is a very grand fellow with an aquiline nose, lofty ideas, perceptive eyes and a social conscience, or at least, social aspirations. He is highly intelligent, but cannot resist any opportunity to show off his wit. He is running for Congress on the Earth Preservation ticket. His political enemies shall attempt to make a monkey of him, of course.
