Reflections?

A quick, photo of my latest painting, Closed 4, seems to be a reflection of how I'm viewing the national, world and local media news, figuratively and literally. I continue to have bouts of wet macro-degeneration and though the repair is working well in my right eye, I worry about my sight. And I'm so disappointed in Pres. Obama's leadership...in the health area, economic stimulus, he's not been a strong leader only a mediator/compromiser. His words are strong, his message great, but his actions don't match. So here's my comparably dark painting w. its barriers that block beautiful possibilities.
