oil on canvas, 60½ x 84 in. (153.6 x 213.4 cm.)

Blackwell said that he had to overcome the feeling that working from photographs was somehow "cheating," When he shot his reference photos outdoors, he noted that "people are often disconcerted by someone who goes about photographing ordinary things with such intensity when there is apparently nothing worthy of being photographed. It makes them suspicious."

He was fascinated by the way photography interpreted reality. "We are so inundated with photographs in one form or another—movies, TV, newspapers, etc.that what a camera does to reality has become a kind of reality itself. This photographic vocabulary is very much a part of my painting."

Quote comes from the classic book on Photorealism written by Louis Meisel.
