In 2008, Ward started work on Accountable Beasts as a means of taking a break from Beyond Aston. He first announced that he was working on the album in September 2013 and it was released on 25 April 2015.
The song "Straws" was previously given a limited release as a charity single in 2002.

# Jayanca District

Jayanca District is one of twelve districts of the Lambayeque Province in the Lambayeque region, Peru.

## History

The district's origin is unclear, however in his book Misceláneas Australes Enrique Brünning reports that the valley was settled by Llapchillully, the favored tailor of Naylamp, the mythical founder of Lambayeque. American anthropologist Izumi Shimada has claimed that the district's first inhabitants, the Sarayoq, belonged to the Andean civilization known as Chavín de Huántar, who formed their first rural settlements in the fertile valleys of Jayanca, Salas, and Motupe.
During the Incan period Jayanca was subdued by the Inca Huayna Capac who, commanding 40,000 men, left Cusco and headed for Quito. During his voyage, he conquered several valleys of the north coast, among them Jayanca.

# Richard Burnside

Richard Burnside (1944 - 2020) was an American self-taught folk art painter known for his distinct portraiture style and use of patterns. He had lived in Pendleton, South Carolina., but spent the last few years of his life in Georgia.

## Life

Burnside was born on November 29, 1944, in Baltimore, Maryland, but moved to South Carolina when he was five years old. He attended Sterling high School in Greenville, South Carolina. He held many jobs throughout his life including seven years working at the S&H Green Stamp store in Greenville, a seven-year stint in the U.S. military, and later as a hotel chef in Charlotte, North Carolina. He married twice, first in 1966 to Maggie Holiday (divorced in 1969) and second to Mary Givens in 1974 (divorced 1976). He had two daughters by Holiday and one son and one daughter by Givens. He died in Georgia on October 13, 2020, at the age of 75.

## Art career

Although Burnside held many jobs throughout his life, painting remained his most consistent focus. Some art historians and curators believe that Burnside's subjects are "an Africanized mythology from biblical stories, folktales, and even nursery rhymes".
   "He finds motifs of his paintings in other artworks and in every-day objects, from Army insignia to beer mugs and telephone poles, and has invented personal symbols that he terms his 'Roman Alphabet.' These symbols including spiders, snakes and other creatures most often surround his depictions of flat, round, mask-like faces, which he has seen in dreams and 'coming out of the walls.' He titles his frontal, staring figures kings, queens, and priests.'"

### Materials and Techniques

Burnside was known to paint on found material such as gourds, cardboard, sticks and scraps of metal, but his most common surface was thin plywood. He used enamel as a primary layer, drew his composition with a felt tip pen, and then filled in the drawing with colorful paint. He then left the completed painting on a table outside for about a day to allow the piece to weather. The typical size of Burnside's pieces were 30" x 30" or smaller.

## Collections

Burnside's work is in the permanent collections of the Minneapolis Institute of Art, the Smithsonian American Art Museum, the Milwaukee Art Museum, and the Ackland Art Museum. He had a retrospective show at the McKissick Museum in Columbia, South Carolina in 2016.
