When I lived in Dallas years ago, a friend described a nightmare date she went on, and I made this drawing to commemorate it.

Ink and marker, 1990.
The source was a joke store package for a rubber severed finger, as best as I can recall. Possibly from China or Taiwan.

Am continuing to work on my archives. This painting is based on a photo I took in Riverside Park. The oil-on-canvas version is a detail from the photo. Painted and exhibited when I was living in Dallas. This photo was taken outside of the studio in Deep Ellum that I had for about a year and a half.

Am attempting to re-scan and re-post some older pieces. The photo (4x5 transparency) is by Bill Orcutt.

Came across this in The Archives. I don't remember drawing it but it was likely done at a DQ when smoking was still a thing.
