Most every year Art Papers asks for an auction donation for their fund-raiser, which I responded to, usually, with a piece along these lines, something playful, conceptual. That year they completely underestimated the attendence size... it was so crowded one could hardly see the art & so sales were down. Just as well, I got to keep the piece. The drawing came from daughter's sketch book and I put it on a block of wood cut to fit the dish, first putting acrylic paint in the dish, then forcing the block in, getting paint blowback, or oozeback.
