Although my artistic abilities are nil, I took weeks coming up with my rendition of the collective intelligence of those who have held power for the last seven years.

4. It is truly wondrous in its understatement.
This seems to be the ultimate conclusion in William Prescott's order, "Don't fire until you see the whites of their eyes". What if we can see only the whites of their eyes? Are we too late?

13. In the greater order of things, seven years isn't "too late."
Perhaps I'll get a chance seven years from now to create a more meaningful work.

5. There are only horizontal lines, no vertical ones to enclose your picture
does this represent that there is no end in sight to the continuation of the stupidity? Or that there is infinite emptiness in their collective intelligence?

6. I didn't know how to get the vertical lines in there. However, I am very
proud of my first artistic endeavor.

9. I call it "Reasonable Arguments Against Impeachment."
And unlike most visual art, which is known for hanging on a wall, this is hung "off the table."

11. Thank you, balantz. Although it is not on a par with
Michaelangelo's Cistern Chapel ceiling, I spent many, many hours on my back conceptualizing it.

15. Not having viewed your earlier work,
can I safely say you have undone yourself?

18. i think the horizontal lines are far too generous, otherwise it's an accurate depiction.
