Kevin Wingate is George Jones. I have choices and a weakness
for whiskey. Based from geometric standards, I paint customizations that
are flawless and blank. The work is an example of painting. How much more
purple can someone make their Monte Carlo? Can iridescent spray paint
on the spoiler on a Honda better my chances of getting laid? This type
of customization can be a true malfunction in the cultural landscape,
but it works so well in relation to it all, how can it be wrong? As beer
coolers are meant to hold beer, my paintings are constant reminders of
why this ain't the high life. I have a desire for the work to be about
the potential love or party that could happen everyday at closing time.
Kevin cares.
"Are you sure Hank did it this way" is based off of a Waylon Jennings song. It is comparing the country scene in Nashville in the mid-seventies to the classic hard living culture of Hank Williams.
