Painting detail from the 2% - "Dean Ericksen was forced. . ."

By Jack Brummet

This is a detail from a larger painting I did many years ago, probably in the late 90's.

Paintings: Faces #632 and #633: Portrait of Chou En-Lai

By Jack Brummet

I have had the second picture on the wall for years.  But today when I took it down to bring it to my office, I discovered I had done another painting on the back.

This silk poster was originally a portrait of Chou En-Lai.  I transformed it into the man with flaming hair.  But on the obverse side, I worked on the image of Chou En Lai.  And here it is, years later.

Painting: Map No. 1 (with three detail shots)

By Jack Brummet

This is the first map I ever painted/drew. It is framed in a wooden window frame salvaged from our house. It has been hanging in my wife's office for many years (she wrote: "This map has lived in my office for years. It is taking a sabbatical at our house after all those hard years at the grindstone. Love it."
It is painted on three sheets of d'Arches cold pressed watercolor paper, with Daniel Smith watercolors, pencil, and of course, the ever-present Sharpie™.
