stop staring at my rump

stop staring at my rump.
original watercolor and ink painting, 5 x5 inches, ORIGINAL SOLD

** UPDATE ** Prints now available online.

I loved researching this one. I don't discuss it often, but a ton of research goes into most of my paintings, especially for this more recent series of cuts of meat. Accuracy is as important to me as humor, mostly because I love researching, but also because I want respect of any chefs who might like my work.

For this series, I was basically looking for the quintessential or archetypal version of that particular cut of meat. For the beef rump, it was clear that a tied up roast was *the* image of rump that I needed to use.

  3. Well over a year ago, I started following the then-obscure Instagram account of a Japanese watchmaker (@_hiiih_). Focused on Rolex watches,replica watches he posted a very high magnification image of a special wheel that lives inside the Rolex Caliber 4130, the movement that powers the Rolex Daytona chronograph.replica watches uk Upon seeing that weird wheel, I sought the assistance of certified Rolex service watchmakers in a few different countries, and not one of them could explain to me exactly what that weird wheel was about. Still, left to our own devices, it’s worth discovering this weird little wheel that neither Rolex nor Hublot talk about — and yet both manufactures assign a very important role to this high-tech wheel. Importantly, Rolex switched to this wheel relatively recently, as the 4130 (in production since 2000) has not had this,fake rolex just an ordinary-looking small wheel in its place.
