About the Item
A portrait of Fred Rogers, Mr. Rogers
I suppose I like to believe that liars know they’re lying. I like to believe it’s a controlled activity. And if they know what they’re doing, I trust that they realize that lying isn’t something everyone does.
Figures like Fred Rogers offer us all an alternative path, away from a life of lying. But being Mr. Rogers surely involves a great degree of discipline or sacrifice. And who has time for that?
Constantly being decent takes focus and energy. Lies are easy. Lies take little effort. Lies happen when we’re sleepy.

Like the Westerns I grew up with, my own work is camouflaged in a veil of nostalgia. The figures in my work are often portrayed against a stark background. This forces the viewer to recognize the myth before the critique exposes itself. I work from observation and my imagination using watercolor and traditional printmaking methods. The figurative images I create are heavily researched. By using the West, a subject that I am both familiar with and continue to question, I aim to engage with our inherent perceptions of the past and the myths embedded within. - Jed Webster Smith
