I think its one off his best images overall even though its from a paint by numbers show.
I had it in cart and tried to check out and failed......TBH I was hemming and hawing over it for about 5 minutes.
Should have just broke down and got one....

The next print in the "Facing the Giant: Three Decades of Dissent" print series is "Proud Parents." Here's how co-curator Pedro Alonzo explains the work:⠀
Motivated by his long-held interests in using art to encourage critical awareness and dissent, in this print the artist co-opts the aesthetic of currency and popular tropes of the middle class to render a dystopian view of the American family. Created during the second term of the George W. Bush presidency, this print questions the increasingly skewed national values of this country and the role of money in furthering that condition.⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With a deliberately vintage design, a couple cradles a bomb as if their child. Their loving and optimistic display, however, is surrounded by verbal puns that undermine their position and future. The family unit is consumed by a government that sponsors a nonsensical American scene, interested in investing more in the military instead of education.⠀
