Deep Throat
This is a hand-painted copy of the poster for Deep Throat, which was already a painting of a pair of red lips. I kept the lips and the tagline and added fangs. I also swapped the director credit for Jack Horner, the fictional porn director from Boogie Nights. Same promise, now with a bite.
I got the frame from a thrift store. I took it apart and rebuilt it as the inside of a sleazy adult movie theater. The velvet is fabric painted red. The brass handrails are plastic. Total cost of the frame: two dollars. Admission: free.
Acrylic on canvas and fabric. Measures 16” x 13.75”.
