"Give me a Break! I'm living in a VAN DOWN BY THE RIVER!" Painting (inspired by Chris Farley)

This is a painting I created for the 2022 "The Good Die Young" show at the SugarMynt Gallery in Pasadena, CA. The theme of the show was paying tribute to artists, comedians, writers, musicians, etc. all of whom had left us way before their time. I chose Chris Farley as my subject. He had many great characters in his repertoire, but I feel it was Motivational Speaker Matt Foley which he made famous on SNL that is probably his best remembered and most quoted creation. It also occurred to me that we never did see where he was living in a van DOWN BY THE RIVER!
