Stretchers are expensive. Stuckist painters can take apart old paintings and roll them up for storage.
It was an anti-fracking piece using war criminal and ex-U.S.Vice President, Dick Cheney, as a model. It got zero reviews at exhibition, and no bites at sales. It’s been producing cobwebs in the studio, so I chose it as one of several for deep storage.
First, pull out 150 staples…
Roll it up!
Re-stretch over frame, and by magic, fit it onto easel in cramped studio space. Gesso (primer) it.
Paint for three days.
Knock over paints and paraphernalia on way to take photograph of new painting in the backyard.
Our house gets skunk-sprayed at least once a year. The stink sticks on everything, especially brass doorknobs. The painting suggests that the skunk is getting bolder.
Finally, lay beside your favorite couple getting skunk-blasted for the upteenth time.
Another great photo of your studio. I could happily live in there.
