The Fourth Annual Members’ Show opens this Friday night, June 22, at the Western New York Book Arts Collaborative. WNYBAC is located at 468 Washington Street in downtown Buffalo. If you have never been there, this could be the right moment. It is one of the most unique resources in Western New York.
My inspiration for this painting was an old photo in an album thrown out on the Eastside. The picture was dated from the forties so I imagine that she might have worked for the war effort in Buffalo. Type on the side and top are lines from a song about Rosie the Riveter.
I did her portrait in spray paint and acrylic. The wood for the frame came from Buffalo ReUse, always a great place to get inspired. Buffalo ReUse has a new and even better location at 296 East Ferry Street in Buffalo.
Hope to see you Friday!
