MICKEY AT 90

Graphite with digital color.

I loved seeing all of the 90th birthday celebrations for Mickey but I think it feels fake to only let Mickey remain as he was in 1930 or ‘40. Life is tougher and more emotional that that. And with how I’ve come to watch it unfold for so many, it’s not worth ignoring the full range of every spice and experience life has to offer us. So, this is my take on Mickey at 90. Still as beautiful. Still the teacher. Happy Birthday Mickey. This is what dreaming is all about.
