        Bob Graham (American/New Orleans, b. 1947), "Boeuf Gras", 2012, acrylic on canvas, signed and dated lower right, 18 in. x 36 in., framed . Ill.: Graham, Bob. The Mardi Gras Paintings of Bob Graham. Gretna: Pelican Publishing Company, 2015. Note: “A parade only exists when it rolls. It is an abstract idea produced by the sequencing of exciting elements. When it’s over the floats and people still exist, but the parade ceases to exist.” ~ Bob Graham Local artist Bob Graham is primarily known for his impeccable portraiture. Notably, he is annually commissioned to paint the portraits of the inductees of the Saints Hall of Fame. He is also a master at painting local scenes, including his moving portrayals of Mardi Gras revelry that prove enchanting tributes to the city’s most beloved and celebrated past-time. With his vivid palette and impressionistic brushstrokes, Graham succeeds in capturing the movement and exuberance of the larger-than-life festivities. In this canvas, entitled “Bœuf Gras,” Graham depicts the iconic Rex float, mid-ride amidst the roaring crowd. The parade-goers are represented with frenzied strokes of color, perfectly capturing the ephemeral, euphoric energy of Mardi Gras day. Ref.: Graham, Bob. The Mardi Gras Paintings of Bob Graham.
