Troy Gua's The Ronald McReagan, resin-coated metallic print on board, 12 by 12 by 2 inches, at Suite 100 Gallery

These pieces will be at Cupcake Royale in Ballard starting Feb 7, so if you miss the show at Suite 100, check it there. Valentine's Day is Ballard Art Walk.

I'd rather have trickle down economics than bottom up class warfare.

Looks like either a guy or a girl w/ an Afro.

Or Ronald the McDonald.

It strangely looks more like Maggie Thatcher than Reagan... Message is the same I guess.
