delicious

6"x8" ink/collage/paper

6"x8" watercolor/paper

6"x8" acrylic/ink/paper

These three are my contributions to The Big Draw, the winter fundraiser for Beacon Open Studios in April. That is why they're all 6"x8" on paper. I was aware they were all 'drinks' of a sort, but for some reason didn't immediately notice they all contained the word 'delicious'. 

There are over 200 works on display starting this Sat Jan 12 through the 26th at Hudson Beach Glass, 162 Main St. in Beacon. All works are only $50 each, so it's a good way to acquire affordable art and support our annual open studios. On Jan 26th 7-10pm there's a party: music, food, open bar, live drawing rally and silent auction.

The Ginger-Mint Julep watercolor is from New Orleans, of a building's fading painted wall. 

I have previously made acrylic paintings on canvas of both Coffee Cream Bottle and Cocomalt. I like making several versions of the same objects, in different media, like sketching a model in the same pose- the particularity of a typeface like the familiar curve of a hip.
