(Almost) Final Version
Due to time contraints I had to photograph this before the white border was tinted - but click on the image to see a much MUCH MUCH larger version. Half of it is upside-down because it's going to be placed beneath a 1"-thick ocal-shaped glass for a table-top. Standing on either side of the table will show it rightside-up.
Untitled, 2011. 91" x 31", pen and ink and watercolor on paper.

final border color details
Mary Amir, ink
Mary Amir, my old [Israeli] Hebrew School teacher, lacking depth perception. Even though she didn't allow ANY burping (or farting) in class, she was pretty nice. Though as a result of my fondness for drinking fizzy liquids, I was often sent to the Rabbi's chambers. There were 2 - one was an ego tripper ( I heard he moved to lead a Miami mega-temple) and the other one looked like a stereotype of cartoon SATAN - and he was the coolest guy EVER. Their names? Bookman and Brickman.
Teachers from Memory
I'm starting a new collaborative project with my good friend Renee French. The first phase: each of has to draw, from memory, portraits of our school teachers (I threw in my middie-school psychiatrist just for fun). Here are my first 7 (of 10) in ink. I plan to eventually finish them with watercolor. All are 8" x 10", pen & ink.
