About The Work
In The Boat with the Happy Couple, the idealized form of a beautiful woman seems to loom over two cartoonish lovers in a boat as they erupt from the nether regions of a sexualized female form. Rendered fragmented by the brushstrokes that seem to cross out the figures, the image reads like a strange, supernatural dream.
