In the last piece, I revealed that I love peaked caps — icons of authority. I also love big, floppy sun hats — icons of relaxation. For some people, relaxation involves a plate of nachos, and some ugly pyjamas. I've done it, too. Relaxation, for me, though, would involve pulling up to a Genoese seaside cafe, in an Aston Martin DB7. I'd be wearing some white shoes to go with my white Dior jeans, and a navy blue cashmere crew neck, the sun gleaming off my gold aviators. I would order a tea and a croque-madame, without the ham, and then lean back, and have Toni Garrn tell me all about it. That is leisure.
Original is a 5.5"x8.5" pen&ink drawing but it can be done as a print or a painting. Completed May 26, 2012.
