Menu Man Chef


15x22 watercolor on Fabriano 140 lb hot press paper painted as a demo yesterday in Odessa, TX.  I had only 1 hour to paint this happy menu man and only a few finishing touches were needed.  While working in Albuquerque this tall ceramic statue was greeting customers at a family Mexican cafe so I took photos, then skewed one of them in PhotoShop to use.  He was advertising also for Santa Fe Brewing Company.

15x22 work is actually two identically painted scenes of pink roses in front of a house. The original was ho-hum boring so a few years late...
