"Indecision" images for this piece were gathered from encyclopedias and farm journals from the 1960's. The painting of the young man dressed in fashion from the 1970's sits holding a map of the Carolina's as he considers his future college career path. The image depicts a time when young men were leaving the family farm and considering careers in different fields. The early 1970's was a time in history when the decline of the family farm was first recognized and a movement to save the farm was started.

This piece was created while an Artist Resident at Wild Acres Retreat, 2014.
