“I Knew These Two People…” ink on bristol, 5” x 7” (diptych), 2012.
A belated Valentine’s Day piece… I spent mine drawing Travis and Jane from Wym Wender’s gorgeous “Paris, Texas.” Harry Dean Stanton didn’t turn out as recognizably “raggedy” as I wanted, but I think the two portraits are strong together. If I wasn’t at home and working on a computer without Photoshop, I might try coloring them.
Anyway, any excuse to spend an evening staring at pictures of Natassja Kinski and listening to Ry Cooder is a good one. Highly recommend.
