Chess with Eve Babitz

Sep 3, 2020 | Comments: 2

I read a fascinating biography on Eve Babitz, the Los Angeles author and artist. She wrote several fictional memoirs, and as an artist she made album covers for Atlantic Records, for Buffalo Springfield and other bands.  

Maybe the most famous photo of her is the one where she's 20 years old and playing chess in the nude with Marcel Duchamp, 1962.

I made this somewhat abstract painting, calling it "Chess with Eve Babitz".

Watercolor, collage, ink. Size 38 x 28cm (15 x 11").

Waiting

Leo Tolstoy

Just finished reading "Anna Karenina" by Leo Tolstoy, what a wonderful book! What a great storyteller! Why didn't I read this long ago? Big fan of Leo Tolstoy now, here below my watercolor portrait.
