Two For One
Those that have been with us for awhile might remember that I am in charge of the art department for Minks to Sinks. It is essentially a giant tag sale and I spend days in my little tent pricing a few thousand frames and framed posters, and when I’m lucky a few original pieces. It’s a tight space but I’m happy to be there because without fail a monsoon hits us every sale. It’s our version of a rain dance and we often joke that we should take it on the road to drier climates because we are sure to bring the clouds with us. I took this from the safety of my spot, check it out.
It was a mess, but we all just keep our grease pencils in hand and carry on.
Every sale I allow myself to choose two pieces to bring home, it is always the very best and the very worst piece I can find. This time I think I managed to combine them, what do you think of my treasure? I think at 2 bucks you can’t beat it.

spectacular example of early pop art sensibilities juxtaposing with feminism to a attain a certain melodrama of light and shadow that informs the viewer that this piece of art is … well … sublime. how’s that for art speak. i personally adore the piece. congrats on a great find.
