Wino Chef

9x12 mixed media collage on Canson XL watercolor paper done this afternoon. Sketched with Micron 05 pen on a backing sheet for smaller works, the face and scarf was what I concentrated on, as the figurine I used to photograph him had him on a little bicycle. I first painted him in watercolor, then used a black and white Montana acrylic marker, then white acrylic on his chef jacket. Collage is bar and restaurant ad texts adhered with Liquitex matte medium.  Note the bloodshot eyes.
