Description
I went to a liquidation sale where all of the store fixtures, display cabinets, and mannequins were being sold after a department store closed. I liked the odd poses and the way that the neon price tags stood out on these ladies. This is not selective coloring, almost everything in the building was either black and white or gray, except for the brightly colored price tags.
Dedicated to my FAA acquaintance Michael May who said that he likes mannequin art.

I appreciate your compliment and your thank you….it was your previous comment about my mannequin assemblage that prompted me to search my archives for this mannequin image that I captured several years ago !

Love your two queens as they brought back memories of about 40+ years ago of an artist friend of mine that had about 20 of them in his apartment, some were sitting on his sofa and other pieces of furniture. He told me that he was never alone and we use to joke about it. He also would paint and decorate them. They were and still are a sculptural art form. Mike
