"In most cultures, there is a mythology that addresses our journey into an afterlife. Often, these stories include a guide whose job it is to deliver us to our final reward. In 'The Coachman,' I have painted a black carriage driver who is employed in doing this work... He smiles a Cheshire cat grin, as if to say, Hey, cousin, its you, not me, that's responsible for your fate. In one hand he holds a bull whip, for those who have conveniently detached themselves from their conscience, becoming strangers to their souls. In his other hand, for those of us who have been good, a cream pie awaits, for a joyful party that will last for Eternity." ~ The Artist, John Doyle
