Day 3: JOAN

​JOAN

Hello from lovely San Francisco! I feel so lucky to be able to wake up, come to studio and create something new and “delightful” that someone else may find humor in as well.

Above is one of my favorite Joan Rivers expressions. Every time I look at it I can’t help but smile. Those eyebrows! She was such a particular kind of comedian, one who was comfortable in her loud and obnoxious skin, a spirit I admire. I thought of her after reading, “The Life Changing Magic of Not Giving a F*ck,” and wondered what her version of that book might’ve been.

Sidebar- If you’re aware of the Kon Mari method of organization and have not yet read the aforementioned book parody, you are in for a real treat.

This little painting was a blast to paint for Day 3 of the 30 in 30 painting challenge. I’m loving the close crop and plan on continuing this new approach as I continue painting this month. Stay tuned!
