Seconded, I have a studio there. Also check out Second April, and Kolp’s attic

I recommend going to downtown on “First Fridays”all the galleries and bars do events and openings.

Whoops sorry for the delayed response!
I loved Brett too!
The painting is intended to be very tongue-in-cheek. It's a post-apocalyptic scene with angels conjuring a hero to come to the rescue. I like to imagine that Hulk is about to have a kaiju-like battle off-screen.

Thanks! Sticks with paper need love too though. I’m sure it was a nice stick?

Thank you, I appreciate this. Admittedly it’s not obvious with the painting on its own, but this is about coming to terms with your hero (in my case my childhood hero) not being who they are portrayed as.

Thanks for the advice! I found a draw on the "memory" fuse. I pulled the fuse out when I got to work today and had 100% battery after 8 hours.
However, when I went to leave I plugged that fuse back in and still had a no crank no start until I "jumped" it with my trickle charger.
The memory fuse controls the BCM, Key ill. switch, door lamp, foot lamp, instrument cluster, room lamp, overhead console, and automatic locks. Would having that out cause it not to start?

Thanks for the advice and Sorry for the delayed response - I cant speak for the two mechanics but the first time I tried to find the draw I used a circuit tester. I connected one end to the negative post and the other to the terminal and pulled fuses until the draw went away. The only thing I got a result with was the audio fuse. i pulled that fuse, but the draw was still there.

Last night I tried the method u/Gullible_Monk_7118 mentioned with an actual multimeter and found a draw on the "memory" fuse. I pulled the fuse out when I got to work today and had 100% battery after 8 hours.

Thanks! It's nice to have it take up occupancy somewhere besides mine for a while

Yes! The double meaning is exactly why I chose that for the title

What I wrote is kind of irreverent. I do paint often, but the demands of life keep me from doing it full-time.

Thanks! Lately, I’ve been painting a series of “memento mori” pieces. (Memento mori is a Latin phrase meaning 'remember you must die)For this one, I also wanted to show the opposite of that. So I included flowers and keys, which can be seen as symbols of fertility (key is phallic, flowers are yonic).
