This is a beautiful abstract painting with lots of warm oranges, yellows, and pinks. It's a multi-layered composition with various collaged elements mixed in. The title refers to an old Star Trek trading card from my youth that has been collaged in and not been painted over like all the other collaged elements have but instead has had a hastily painted frame in grey paint drawn around it. The card features Captain Jean-Luc Picard from Star Trek: The Next Generation, who they call J. L. Pipes on account of his big arm muscles over on the Greatest Generation podcast, which is an audio program I am fond of.

There is a dreamy lyrical quality to this composition, with various patterns and collage elements pushed back into the distance or pulled to the front in a sort of slow vortex of toxic nostalgia mixed with hopes and dreams.
