My Mom's a Bad Ass

In 1973 my mom was almost as cool as she is now.  She was a newlywed, art student and all around badass.  I wasn't born yet, but I know because of this:


She used absolutely no black to paint it.  For years this painting lived in the basement of the house I grew up in. Now its mine, ALL MINE! 


In the sunlight the colors really come to life. I love this, it's perfect, like it was meant to be in this space.
