Clothes Line 2021

30x40

oil on canvas 

  My mother painted a picture of a clothes line in 1995 with a painter called Tommy Thurmond. It is my favorite painting of my mother’s.

  I’m not sure why I love clothes lines. It’s the opposite feel of high fashion. Yet, the smell of Ptown air on your clothes is one of the most enticing experiences for me.

  I love how the little wooden clothes pin is the star of this dramatic scene.
