Recently, I read that teenagers resist reading young adult fiction but instead look for adult material, while younger children, hoping to get a peek of teenagerhood, would read about high schools and puberty. According to this cycle, it makes me wonder if adults miss the comfort of children’s fairy tales. This may be true in a way. Occasionally, when the exhaustion from work and life pile up on a rainy day or a Friday night, it is too easy to simply want to crawl under the blanket with a mug of hot soup and watch a little something. If that’s the case for you, perhaps you’d like to watch the short, animated film Crowboy.

The first thing you'll see upon entering the gallery at Deep Space (77 Cornelison St.) is the shadow-outline of a woman's leg. There it is, on a chartreuse background, sticking straight up in the air with a curvaceous bare foot inches from the ceiling. That's all of the subject of "Lemon Lime Toe of God" that the oil painter Delilah Ray Miske is willing to show us. The rest of the body, she implies, is splayed out on a bed. We know it's summer because the window is closed and the air conditioner is plugged in. There's a pretty good chance that the possessor of the leg is undressed. In one hand, she holds a cellphone, and she might be broadcasting something. On the wall, a small whip-like broomstick hangs. It could be the ride of a tiny witch. It could be the professional tool of a dominatrix.
