More Bob | Stage Two
More Bob | Stage One
When I was figuring out the composition for my previous Bob painting I was equally attracted to the sign with the neon letters and the statue of Bob. After finishing the painting I knew I needed more Bob. I love his red and white checks, they remind me of my college days painting Purina Dog Chow bags. Bob makes me smile, he looks so happy offering us that giant hamburger. But the longer I look, the more I become aware of the price paid by eating all those hamburgers.

Bob: Completed
What can I say? I do love Bob. I love his red and white checkered overalls. I love the hair and his smile. I have fond memories of eating at Bob's as a child, especially the chocolate milkshakes. I remember when my family moved to Texas how happy we were to discover that the Big Boy was there too, even if his name was Kip. I love him so much I know I have to paint him again.
