In the hardcopy magazine one of our writers interviews local artist DECOY.  Before our first of two portrait sessions to accompany the article, I emphasized, “bring the red hoodie.”  Maybe it’s not the urban cosmo she wears so well at openings, but for me it’s a symbol of her painterly lifestyle.  Artist first.

Side Note: This photographer recently bought a painting by another DC51 artist collective member, OWEL (pronounced “oh well”), at Luna Grill on Connecticut Avenue.  Be like me, get an omelette and leave with a very affordable work of art from a nationally-recognized artist.
