The Wire Mini-Series

My Friend Angie had been after me to watch The Wire for years. Ten years later, when the show was available streaming, I finally obliged. Why did I wait so long?! What a great show and a phenomenal cast of characters. Despite the antiquated technology, like pagers and pay phones, the story is just as relevant as when it premiered. Seemed like a great idea for a painting a day(ish) series and a good excuse to try out some new water soluble pencils. Which character is your favorite?

All paintings are 5×7″ water soluble pencils & acrylic on paper.
