While Jane and Jason are busy entertaining our very first drawing guests, I decided to do a little artist rival research. As many of you may know, The Thrilla in Manila is named after the famous boxing match between Muhammad Ali and Joe Frazier for the Heavy Weight Boxing Championship of the World, fought in Metro Manila, Philippines on October 1, 1975. But here at the Jen Bekman Gallery we are drawers, not fighters! Our artists are more in line with another rather famous duo, Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat as they collaboratively painted it out during the 1980's.
If you are in need of some creative inspiration, you can become your very own drawing superhero at the 826NYC Superhero Supply Store in Brooklyn. With about an hour to go, more people just sat down to draw and the wall is filling up. Jane and Jason are still going strong! Stay tuned for more!
