Love in the 90s

1992 (original 1989)
Watercolor, pen and ink, color pencil.
5.5" x 8.5"

This is the second version of a piece I originally did in 1989.

In the 80s AIDS and STDs became huge stories. There was a lot of talk about “safe sex” and “safer sex.” You might say that this is the “Safest Sex.”

The piece of course is a parody of Auguste Rodin’s The Kiss (a personal favorite).
