December 18th -- Piet and I placed milk and cookies by the fireplace for Santa

Piet Mondrian, the Dutch De Stijl artist is so iconic -- recognizable by pretty much everyone, but special to me because the work jumped out at me on a high school field to the the AK . (along with the mirror room -- not Mondrian).  So here is a playful little painting called, "Piet and I placed milk and cookies by the fire place for Santa."  I love the precision, the clean rectangles of primary colors, and the sharp black lines.  For some reason, I thought crisp cold milk was the perfect pairing with this work, but not just any milk -- it had to be an old fashioned glass jar milk. My search for antique glass milk bottles brought me to a beautiful French one with the prefect diamond red label and lettering.  And what cookie? -- oreos, of course.  Not because I'm in love with oreos (although the filling is seriously good), but because they are pretty much black and white and perfect little discs.

Thanks for looking.  Please note that unless you live in the WNY area, I probably won't be able to get this to you by the 25th.

Here is the Piet Mondrian I "appropriated" for my painting.
