Twas the night before paintings were due and I turned right around and drew/painted the junk table in my studio. I thought it'd be fun to bring a third color into this one, in the form of the unprimed panel. All of this black and white stuff is sort of about finding an ideal middle ground between drawing and painting; I did a lot of this one with these tubes with nozzles, like thie things they use to decorate cakes with frosting. My mom always used to have those around the house and I would find the nozzles and scoop the leftover frosting out of them with my little finger.
