'Star-' had its genisis, believe it or not, with a campaign promise by that dumb ass president-want-to-be (Trump) making a statement, "We need a moonbase now!". Though true, it was an empty promise, forgotten now I'm sure, by a TV head that will say anything to win. He lost that swing of the bat, but somehow, incredulously, holy-shit what just happened, he is now the President of the United States now! Star-Twit indeed.
In fact, the real title (look carefully) explains how a very complex paintng can start with any out-of-the-blue thought occurance and then you just go with it.
'Big-' is one of my 'love' series with my invented text.

'the artist bids-' is another unrealized (then) declaration of freedom from the 8-4 jail sentence.
'my BITCH reach' was an abandoned painting of my arm (it was a bitch, not going anywhere with my original idea) but not one to waste wood, I eventually took another crack at it. Successfully this time.
Also, thanks to my sketch, I figured out the meaning of those numbers, 3+18+5+5+6+20+1=58, my age when I finished this painting. Don’t throw things out.
