Flamingo for a Wolf
My friend Dave Taylor and I did a little work-trade this week. He was doodling some cool flamingoes a while back (he’s all Miami like that), and I liked them. We struck a deal, and DT got us some 10-inch-square panels and we up and painted them. It was good fun.
I really like the concept of work trades, as an artist. I think buying and selling art is a complicated thing for me to internalize because I make stuff because I really enjoy doing it. But trading one painting for another makes perfect sense. Prints make even more sense because of their multiple nature. I love the smell of a print shop at 2 in the morning. It smells like… chemicals.
