Ripe Art Show: The Invite




My food offering of thanksgiving for Louise's lunch tomorrow-- white beans and escarole soup-- from scratch.

With the opening of our exhibition next month, Louise and I have been brainstorming like mad over the invitation card. I put together my illustration-- thrilled to have a chance to create a portrait of Louise and myself. Although I've known Louise since 1985, it was the first time I've incorporated her image into my work. Louise returned the favor and created a collage portrait of us that blew me away. The show will hopefully prove to be evidence of the interesting conversation Louise and I have been having ever since we first met.

Are you using both? They are fabulous.

Using both-- double sided. Explained the soup pic too-- rather cryptic otherwise.
