About The Artwork
In his work "Assassinate", much like one of his previous works "Asinine" the artist uses the other meaning for a donkey ie. ass and instead of the number '9' he uses the number '8'. The artist had the idea for this painting a few years ago but couldn't figure out a way to incorporate two donkeys and a number '8'. He workshopped a few ideas but nothing worked to his satisfaction. It wasn't until he was playing cards and came to the realization that the face cards (king, queen, jack) in a deck of cards were mirrored, but where was the '8'. He quickly decided to take full artistic license to use the 'King of Spades' card, he liked the over all look of the King and also could give the 'ass' somewhat of a 3D effect having the image of the donkey head at a 3/4 view. Instead of having the letter 'K' in the corners, he replaced with the number '8' to complete the visual concept and to create the painting you see "Assassinate" or (Ass Ass in 8).
