Empty and Forlorn Feeling Heavy Glass Washington Monument Globe cutout handle watercolor on heavy paper

watercolor on heavy paper

or just a ball to throw or roll around

Framed: 12 1/4" x 10 1/4"

with the box glazed in bright white and the flat lid in grays and yellow feeling very late 50s modernist abstraction

Further decorative soldering (I believe this would be the right word) at every corner of the house and chimney and roof

Empty and Forlorn Feeling Heavy Glass Washington Monument Globe cutout handle watercolor on heavy paperKind of silly, but also kind of poignant, and I can't help but to gather little things that feel as if they encapsulate the current moment when I come across them. So here a rather lonely feeling little Washington Monument, nothing else around it to mitigate its phallicness, but also appearing a bit curved slumped through the very thick glass of the globe. No snow, no liquid, just obelisk, with some chippy paint around the base. 4" t, 2 9 16" d at
