U - Urban Showers
Urban Showers is my U, and my title for this ink on newsprint by Mary Pedri. In a previous life it won an award at the 1963 Lodi (California) Grape Festival and National Wine Show. It was a birthday gift from one of my sons, who found it at Goodwill.
An Uta poetry form can be found here for U Day.
That is an amazing piece of artwork. Goodwill is full of treasures if you know what to look for.
ReplyDeleteIt does look like a rainy day.
ReplyDeleteYour son has great taste. You trained him well.
ReplyDelete...rather dark!
ReplyDeleteAn unusual medium. Has anything been done to preserve the newsprint?
ReplyDeleteIt's in the original '60s mat and frame, so I don't know. Probably not as much, or with the better materials we use now.
Deletenewsprint is such a creative canvas. i wonder if the passages in it were important to the artist?
ReplyDeleteAn interesting bit of art, especially the canvas newsprint. So creative!
