Real Places and Things
Real places and things are as appealing as Real people to Gary's eye. Often attracted to pretty, evocative things and moments, he then skewers them inadvertently, comically and occasionally poignantly. Dilapidated old bungalows, lawn furniture, vases & flowers, ocean water all settle crookedly into this category, sometimes simply depicted in pen and ink, other times in a gaudy display of pastel colors.
