Weltschmerz Series

**This is parody in order for social commentary using our childhood cartoons, or representations of, etc and how they might react/exist entering our current reality.**

This is part of my series expressing my thoughts at the state of our country, world, culture … today.
Without being overtly political— and to maintain a commentary on it being more about culture than politics— I needed to find a way to express my concern (as well as be therapeutic for me).

At the surface they’re just paintings of known, beloved characters— but they’re also a comment on the world I see.
