I had started this painting a year ago of our in the house recycling paper bag that featured the Campbell’s Soup can prominently. (I’m not a huge Warhol fan). The recycling theme expanded for the “Impact” show and I used mainly personal effects on the frame including my last FAM artwork tag, and pieces of my “Work Series” show stands used in Boston and the Washington DC Mall to create the frame.

Naked in the Bubbles

This painting was inspired by another “Bubbles” painting I had recently completed. I decided that having the human form would provide a feeling of identifiable three dimensional depth of the bubbles. ‘Skinny Dipping’ came to mind as a shared experience where many would have experienced the feelings of all the tiny bubbles rising and tickling across your entire body as they rise. It is a lifelong naughty experience we have found to be so exciting, forbidden and memorable.
