Dready, Dready Art and Everything Dready dready2Bitopia

                                  dready art ‘itopia-ish’ – image

somewhere down in the slog of words, below in this blog, is some chat ’bout a lovely day spent at this house …

and I’ve wanted to draw it since then ….

but actually it was an image of a woman – two women separately, really – leaning in a doorway(s) that brought me back; ’cause I thought this would be a better doorway for a woman to be leaning in.

but but but, before I got to her leaning in a doorway I came across this woman frolicking in Jamaica … the usual beautiful hidden cool jamaican places of wood and water …

and that, that led me to a series of photos featuring this woman and her life somewhere else, and her leaning in a doorway – the table and chairs on the left were part of that life, and I was inspired to put them in this – so, woman, Jamaica and a doorway.

but in the end, outside of the inspiration she provided for the idea, the table and chairs are the only part of her that made this drawing …

then a photo of a man and a very nice haircut and an awesome beard … and he reminded me of the man who used to own this house; maybe him in his younger days …

so a woman leaning in a doorway and now a man … I was going to put him sitting in the chair but there was an empty space to the left of the house that I felt needed to have your attention drawn to it …

in reality the surrounds of this house are big and lush, full of verdant green-ness, there’s no vast open spaces … but I wanted some space … wanted a place to put the chicken!

peace …

About Dready

Dready art is a 100% caribbean product: it was imagined here, designed here, tested here – in barbados, bvi, cayman, grenada and jamaica – we live here and are from here, our children were born here, I draw it here (mostly, cause sometimes I draw it when I’m traveling!). So despite what has become the kind of global reach of dready art we try to think of ourselves as a little caribbean company just doing our thing.
