Lemony Snicket and a Series of Unfortunate Events

My favorite cocktail flavor of INCEL, complete with spotty beard, a bell, and, clueless tattoos. I can almost hear the music he has on aux. Truly simple syrup.

"Crow in the Snow," oil on panel, 20 × 16 – Call Parsons Gallery of the West at +1-575-737-9200. A crow standing in a wide, cold landscape – alert, enduring, simply present. Sometimes a painting isn’t about story so much as posture. How it feels to stand, watch, and hold your ground.
