The partly cloudy patriot

I did this painting quite a few years ago pondering my upcoming voyage to Mexico and wherever else it may take me.  I painted the constellation of Orion, one of my favorites from nights of my Dad teaching me the language of the stars.  Orion has been one of my go to saviors many a dark night be it wherever.  Whenever I look at him I feel safe and calmed.  Funny thing is, when I flew to Mexico, not on a witches broom, but in an airplane it was night.  Guess who was right outside my window watching over me.  Orion!  It was huge and amazing and now I see this painting as a prophecy that came true.
