We have printed and released a small edition of only 16 prints of each, so they are very rare and special.

From the artist’s perspective: “These were some of my first figurative paintings, and they are about unrequited love. The main characters are on time, but there has been a confusion as to transportation. In the left panel, the serviceman represents a new possibility of relationship, and in the second panel, the man checks his watch, to avoid temptation. The title was taken from a line of a Gershwin song. The art director of The New Yorker saw the second image in my portfolio, and it became my first cover for the magazine, in 1999.” - Kenton Nelson
