i’d rather regret the things i’ve done

than the things i haven’t done.

at the beginning of the motherhood project in 2022, i thought maybe i’d make portraits of mothers who were mothering the way i imagined i’d like to mother … if i ever got to be a mother. lucille was at the start of those mothers: the first mother on national television, a penultimate business woman. maybe one of those who falls off the pedestal the more you learn about them …

but ooof. she was funny. and she didn’t let much get in her way.

the 8” x 10” painting is 100% archival: gold and india inks on 100% cotton 140lb. watercolor paper, mounted on a cradled wood panel, sealed with wax medium for water resistance and easy cleaning. it can hang as is, or you can purchase a floater frame to amp up the formality.

all purchased artwork will hang at city o’ city in denver through the end of august, 2024. it will be delivered to new forever homes in the month of september.

for SHIPPING: SMALL PAINTINGS OR LOCAL PICK UP are options @ check out.
