When Rauschenberg met De Kooning
BIG Thanks to @austinkleon for this post about Rauschenberg erasing a De Kooning. BRILLIANT.
The incredible story of Robert Rauschenberg walking up to Willem de Kooning’s house with a bottle of Jack Daniels and asking him for a drawing he could erase.
Not long before he died, Robert Rauschenberg told the story of the Erased De Kooning Drawing in this BBC video. He’s a good storyteller. When he finished his erasure, some folks accused him of vandalizing a de Kooning, saying he destroyed art. It wasn’t vandalism, he tells the interviewer. Then what was it? “Poetry,” he says.
So me. Except for the drawing cartoon characters parts.
I’m the bored spouse at the restaurant, while he draws on the paper tablecloth.

crayon + construction paper: On a graphic facilitation project yesterday, there was crayons and construction paper for the clients to use. I saw the white crayon and wanted to draw something with it. The pink paper was a a perfect pink. On a break, I made this drawing with three crayons. I’d like to know this woman.
Brandygram: Sharing The Draw Quad + a very special announcement!
Heart full of Brandyfesto: Andrew Park the arm & brains behind those brilliant RSA Animate videos, drew this VisProv (visual improv) of my Brandyfesto! I <3 it. Thank you, Andrew, for getting the exuberant spirit of what I was trying to put out there!
Can I add The Library Patron? (yellow pencil, no eraser)

Double Pug Lucky! If I see a pug, it’s a pug lucky day. If I see two pugs, I’m Double Pug Lucky. I turned to fantastic pug-pen-er Gemma Correll to make a great illustration of this silly, furry superstition of mine. I asked for black pugs since they are my favorite. I am delighted with the drawing.
For framing, I found a round frame. I painted it gold and filled the indent with a mix of gold glitter and resin. Splendid!
Have a Pug Lucky Day!
