"Clown On Smoke Break"
Original
oil painting by John Durant
This painting is of a clown taking a smoke break while sitting on a box of TNT. I painted
this during a very trying time in my life, and I think it may represent a certain recklessness that I experienced while
I was facing some very overwhelming grief and stress....
....or maybe it's
just a clown smoking while sitting on a box! LOL
This painting was featured in a gallery owned
by renowned painter Bill Briggs in downtown Nashville next to the Wildhorse Saloon. Unfortunately Bill
decided to close the gallery a couple of years ago. If you ever visit downtown Nashville you can see some of Bill's fabulous
murals in establishments all over town.
