"David"
Acrylic on Illustration Board 18 X 24 .
This is my cousin David, a rabid Auburn fan and one of the nicest guys to ever inhabit this planet. Unfortunately, David passed away a few years back from complications of AIDS. Deb and I loved him deeply and so together we painted this picture in hopes that between the two of us we could capture David's essence through shape and color. Deb captured his love of color with her background and I captured his smile. We will always miss you...
