Cold Drinks, 9” x 12” ink and watercolor on paper
That’s what it says on the ragamuffin chalkboard - “cold drinks.”
Well, maybe not today…………..You can always tell when a Jamaican shop is open for business — windows and doors will be flung wide open, letting the breeze “cool i’ dung”. But if the shop is buttoned up like a church lady on Sunday morning, you best keep moving on down the road.

Von Dutch, 8.5” x 10.5” black and white ink on 100% recycled paper

Miss Una, who is giving you those dreadful Von Dutch hats to tuck up your braids? Seriously. If I had known it had come to this, I would have stocked up on some finer millinery options for you.  I know the church hats are only for sunday and you need a proper day-to-day to protect your head from the blazing sun but, ma’am, Von Dutch? No no no no no. That ain’t right. Let me think on it some and see what we can do…………
