These boots were made for existing, and that's just what they'll do.


Painted on 11"x14" watercolour paper. Since these paintings are loose and scrappy, they may have a smudge or two, but that's a big part of their charm.

Signed on the back. Add a note if you want it signed on the front as well.

 

 

This is a bathtub painting! I have a unique art studio, in an old by-the-hour hotel, complete with hotel bathtub. I initially made paintings in it on a dare, but it evolved into a whole process that became a full show called "I Made These Paintings in the Bath."

Is it weird to paint in a bath? Perhaps. Is it really hard to keep a steady hand in the tub? You bet! But is it oddly therapeutic and full of conceptual possibilities? Is it ever!
