Mr Jones and Mr Smith


This is the duo who starred in the two men in black movies

Its a painting I made some 4 years ago

Using just 5 watercolors, red blue yellow black and white, over a big piece of white cardboard

And a brainload of depression sunk in hard liquor

It was those days when there was this hard liquor in the market that was bubble gum flavored and the liquor was light blue in tint, the alcohol was so strong that I had to mix it with coke to make it easier to drink and that was what I drank when I painted this portrait. I was using watercolor then so I also had a glass of water beside me where I washed my brush every so often and washing red blue yellow white and black colors in this glass turned the water into a dark muddy color, which looked no different from the glass of light blue liquor with coke that I drank from. And since the hard liquor was also kicking in my senses, every so often I forgot from which glass to take a shot from.

Never underestimate a depressed drunkard
