Medium: Negro’ Black Pencil on BFK Reeves Paper
Description: “What?, $240.00 an oz and no lines for the road!”, (1981). The title of this piece was a response to 'consumer' complaints. When a 'customer' would come over to my place to score a bag of pot, I would offer free lines of cocaine, while I' completed the transaction. We had gotten accustomed to smoking Hawaiian pot and chasing that with lines of flaky, white Peruvian cocaine, (unadulterated with cut) - it was a splendid combination. Nevertheless, like any other 'market,' prices rise, and so it was with the Hawaiian pot - the price started to climb, and I could no longer offer the perk of free lines - hence, the title of this piece. Again, this piece is a still life of an old coffee table that I had.
