I like to work in series as I use watercolors or pastels and oil pastels, sometimes combining them with ink, and pen and pencil, too.
This is a series of six that I did late at night around midnight on Saturday, August 17th, 1991 on watercolor paper with just black watercolor inspired by my family of three at that time. My wife and I had watched the David Lynch movie that night " Wild At Heart." The watercolor above is the first of the six I watercolored that night. The dimensions ar6" by 9 and a half ", and they each are for sale for $85 a piece. If you are interested please contact me at : tonythewineguy@gmail.com.
The watercolor above is number two of six. They are shown here in order from one through six. Done at home on Ellen Avenue, our first house.
I work quickly, I like to capture the very seconds of my inspiration in all their rawness and purity, uncompromising and real and honest in every sense : not touched-up : the essence , the moment.
I like the idea , too that my figures become the background and that the background become the figures : both essential to the other.
Hope you have enjoyed these. Happy Wednesday, April 29th, 2015 on a cool, breezy, bright, fresh and slowly-warming morn in northern Virginia. Cheers! Enjoy, please feel free to contact me at : tonythewineguy@gmail.com that is also Tony The Art Guy as well! Anthony ( TONY ) Quinn
