This is an older painting. It came about when I was confronting the difficulties of finding a good model. In the past, I had resorted to using a GI Joe. One day I made the connection between Ken and Barbie with Adam and Eve. The metaphor is perfect: prelapsarian humanity with no brain and no sexuality just like the hollow, neutered, 'irresponsibly proportioned' dolls. Here they are arranged as though a child were re-enacting the story - suspended by strings with the ubiquitous bluebonnet landscape as backdrop, harmless toy tiger and maraschino cherry for the forbidden fruit.


Work may be purchased here in the store at the Buy-It-Now price. The current bid is shown above. To make a bid, contact the gallery via phone (713.522.2409), email or in person.
