I'm going to tell you the truth here - I'd like to keep this painting. I think it's one of my all-time favorites. The space, the individuals, the quietness..... all of it. These patrons were standing in a long line, on the last day of the exhibition titled "Cezanne to Picasso: Ambroise Vollard, Patron of the Avant-Garde", which took place in the Art Institute of Chicago. I included a couple of close-ups of the people, to show you how wonderfully unique we all are.
This new painting will be included in my July show at 16 Patton, in Asheville.
You are on fire, this IS brilliant. I would keep it if I were you. I love the quirky blue shape as a design and compositional element contrasting these characters in line. really well done.
