K. W. McCabe - Interview with Artist Derrick Kearney




It's been a weird few months in my life. I am still adjusting to the changes. Leaving the sunsets of Pinellas County and returning to the sunrises of Duval County. Getting up before the sun each day to work out at the gym. Commuting downtown to either an office or a work site. Showing credentials saying that I work for the state. Then returning to an apartment complex that I left 20 years ago to share dinner maybe with a neighborhood stray cat. 

It's actually nice to have a quiet life these days. 

I have needed something to take my mind off of having surgery to remove the osteoma from my right ear. It took a couple of months to get from figuring out that something was wrong to get things made right again. Just before going under the knife, I gave an interview online to K. W. McCabe, a very talented writer who I connected with online. Click around her site a bit after reading.

The first one that came I've had this thought a few times on different things as the first words that often come to mind. And I don't want to get political when I say this, but sometimes it's so funny to do. So… My first thought was to quote the sitting president and say “This is a big fucking deal right here!” And I thought that thought instantly popped in like how big of a deal this is, a second thought instantly popped into my head to quote the last president and say that “It’s huge!” And then I got serious for a moment. Yeah, cuz you know, all that makes me laugh. But then I got serious for a moment and I remembered a line from the reel post that I recently made. At times I will get messages

Shroom Beach

Two years ago I painted this piece. It was a rainy Saturday afternoon. Memorial Day weekend plans to soak up the sun were substituted for a lonely afternoon indoors. The television set blaring with the sounds of reggae-rock bands streaming from a California music festival. I should have been watching the crowds of young people enjoying themselves but instead laid on the other side of the house, hiding underneath the bedframe facing the closet. The world had been spinning for some time now. The stress of so many things in my life leading me to this moment. Would someone knock that day? Would I lose my job next week? Is my car going to start? Am I losing another lifelong friend due to the fallout of the election? Will I ever find love again? Who can I call family? All swimming through my head at lightning speed, matching the clouds of rain pouring above the house I had grown into. Is the roof going to hold?  Is her spirit haunting this place? What am I doing with my life? I had never
