Even More Art Appreciation at Chutes and Ladders.

"standing in her panties in the shower" .

Thought I would post some more of my artwork here at chutes and ladders. This latest piece is actually the first painting i ever did on a canvas larger than the size of a piece of paper. I guess the title would be "standing in her panties in the shower." Like most of my original artwork, this piece was inspired to a song I heard playing on the radio one night as I was driving from Columbia to St. Louis. The song was the Sheryl Crow hit There Goes the Neighborhood and the verse was:
The photo chick made to look sickly/ Is standing in her panties in the shower/ She plays the guitar in the bathroom/ While the police dust her mother's plastic flowers/ And Schooboy John's in jail/ Making a killing through the U.S. mail.

Of all the pieces I have done, this is my favorite. As a result, I gave it to my partner and my closest friends as a gift. It is very distinct from all my later artwork which has much more aggresive brush strokes and layers upon layers of paint. I often think about doing a companion piece, but haven't found the time. Perhaps when i finish the piece I am working on I will give it a go.
