Oil 29″ x 29″

One afternoon, while leafing through a collection of non copyrighted fashion photographs from the 1920s, silently pleading that inspiration would strike,this group of young ladies hollered out as I flipped by. They were posed on what may have been a hotel’s patio, and appeared to be suffering from the humidity, which gave evidence that the shoot had taken place in Florida. So began “Babes and Beaks”, with a flamingo here, another there, a couple of lizards squeezed in but no ‘gators. I’m saving those for another day. Maybe a painting that features toy poodles.
