Flattop



Newspaper, gesso, oil, ground chalk, charcoal, ink on Newsprint.
This 'century flattop painting' spawns from the vivid color displayed in Spike Lee's film, Do The Right Thing. It is one of my favorite films of all time and for quite some time have attempted to do the film justice through the means of paint...still falling short.
