"The illustration titled 'The Film that Broke Orson Welles' Heart' was an accompaniment to an Entertainment Weekly story on how Orson Welles' was broken, first as an artist, and ultimately, as a director. The hands bound by film signify his producer-forced exclusion from the editing process of his 1955 movie Mr. Arkadin because of his perfectionism and slow pace. Without his hands, the fundamental tools of the artist, Welles is unable to work, unable to create." 4 1/2 x 6, mixed media on paper.
