January's Hill


This is how the beginning of January always looks....an ascent, pushing all one's worldly or otherwise belongings uphill. This is from my graphic novel Bread & Wine, written by Samuel R Delany. Someday I'll have to ask Dennis (the man pictured here) how he managed day after day to live a homeless life, facing the morning with a cart and a cap. I wake up in a warm bed with the hangover of dreams wondering about the journey from here to there. Good thing I paint because there is always here.
