"Take This, My Very Blood" - Third in the four-part series 'Embers' - Mixed media on plywood. My 129th painting.

 

“A cancer upon the Earth. The very foundation of banking is to hold the people hostage. To ransom their lives, their futures for the greed and lust for power of a small percentage of dishonorable men. Leveraging decent, hard-working people into servitude and eventual ruin with a single keystroke. Foreclosing on the existence of millions. Nothing more than government-sanctioned organized crime.

It’s time somebody hit back.” 

This job called for more than her usual matches and gasoline, so Mariel had to reach out to a couple friends in interesting places. There were two objectives: First - to send a message. Second - to not leave one brick standing. Which explains the need for a few packs of C-4. Bank vaults don’t just blow themselves up. 

This was the big leagues.
