Making a Bitter Cocktail

Below is an url to a short slide show of the progress of making the artwork, Bitter Cocktail. You will have to copy/paste it into your web browser; I don't know why links aren't allowed in this blog software.

This image was inspired by an extra copy of the face in a mirror drawing I had made a while back. I keep a small pile of unused drawings and printed materials in the upper corner of my drafting table. When I'm feeling uninspired or bored I will sift through this pile and often something small will remind of a story or something I overhead. At this point I tack that little piece of inspiration to a canvas board and go about finding other materials and colors in my studio that want to join it.
