Lifelong Marylander, radicalized by George W. Bush. Anti-fascist environmentalist. I grow veggies and native flowers, make plein air oil paintings and other art, play indie TTRPGs, watch classic Doctor Who, and go to Phish shows. He/him.

Cover art for Phish’s 1989 self-released debut album, Junta. A black and white drawing, signed, “Pollock 12/89,” in the lower right corner. “Phish,” is written in a whimsical font over black across the top. Tree trunks bound the left and right edges, with the branches reaching into the blackness and behind the band’s name. Just below is a tiny cartoonish house between a few roughly bent posts where the moon and 3 stars are suspended with string. Occupying most of the lower 9/16th is a scene of a room. There are 6 noses with spindly legs and large feet marching across the top of the ceiling. Within the room, a large bald man with exaggerated facial features sits in a chair resting his left hand on a table, wearing black pants and a white tank top. A window is behind him, through which a rough shape resembling a fir tree is seen. A mouse wearing a top hat, coat, and bow tie is standing at the other end of the table and exclaiming at the man. On the floor, to the right, another mouse holding a gun exclaims at a smaller man, also holding a gun, reaching for the doorknob on the right wall. The door has a small, barred window near the top, and a door for the mouse at the bottom. The man is also bald with exaggerated facial features, and is wearing white pants and a coat with tails. A wine bottle and book are on the floor under the table. Against the wall and just to the right of the table is a television on a stand showing an angry looking figure sitting at a table or desk with a paper and pencil. On the wall above the television to the left is a mounted fish, and to the right is a shelf holding two slumped-over dolls with x’s for eyes and striped stockings.
“Cambridge Creek” A 6 inch high by 12 inch wide oil painting on linen panel of a harbor at sunset. Most of the lower half is water, reflecting the soft blues and pinks of the cloudy sky. They are separated by a band of buildings, boats, ship masts, and a water tower. The painting is signed POE in the lower right. Painted on the traditional lands of the Choptico and Choptank people.

A yellow coffee mug reading “2020 Virtual Conference” next to the logo of the Intertribal Agriculture Council, which, along with the name, features a steer, a stalk of corn, a horse, and the text “Est. 1987” within a circle, with two feathers attached to the bottom.
