Ship of Fools

Size:  31.5” X 36”

“I was born of their restless stock, a descendant of the foolish, starry-eyed dreamers who left their towns and ventured here in hope of finding paradise. I’m sure they seemed reckless to a fault, and I’m sure they were scorned for their blind optimism.  Still, had I lived then, I’d like to think that I, too, would have set sail in that ship of fools.”
