Wayne Thiebaud: Eight Lipsticks, 11 × 14 Print
An 11 x 14-inch reproduction of Wayne Thiebaud's Eight Lipsticks. Tiny in scale though monumental in attitude, Thiebaud's print features intimate and frivolous lipsticks lined up like soldiers with military precision.
This 11 x 14-inch reproduction of Wayne Thiebaud's Eight Lipsticks (1988) accompanies the exhibition Three Centuries of American Prints from the National Gallery of Art. Tiny in scale though monumental in attitude, Thiebaud's print features intimate and frivolous lipsticks lined up like soldiers with military precision. Scratched into the metal printing plate, his lines carry burrs that catch ink and cause a slight bleed, softening the forceful marks with blushes of pink and gold.
